Immerse yourself in the Prairie Gardens at their best, in the height of their summer growth, as the seed heads are starting to form. Spend the first day making large charcoal drawings, followed by a day of ink, moving into paint and mixed media on the final day.

You will be guided through drawing and meditation exercises to awaken your senses. Looking and listening, respond to the sounds and natural rhythms of the garden. You will be encouraged to make expressive drawings and paintings by building up layers and allowing your work to change and grow. Working on paper so you can be unprecious and experiment more freely. You can expect to go home with plenty of inspiration to work from and propagate your ideas after the course.

Cost: £240 includes garden entry fee, tuition, refreshments and studio space 9am - 2pm.
Access to the garden, and limited studio space available all day until 5pm

*NB this course is non-residential but I can help you find accommodation nearby if you are not local. Treat it as your own personal retreat.

"It is amazing the marks that just appear. I have a yearning to paint dancing trees. I love the wind inviting  the branches to dance together. The different moves. Fascinating. Exciting." GLEN - Drawing and Meditation 2024
