We're always right where we are, but with a pencil and a piece of paper we can travel in so many ways, right from that spot.

I will guide us through a few simple drawing exercises that will up your connect with the world around you, inviting you to meet yourself and others along the way. 

The emphasis is not to make a beautiful drawing to exist in the future, but to engage with the process, slow down, feel into it, be present. Whatever you create will be a memento of the experience.

Join me, join your lines, and let's go exploring.

The next sessions are:

Wednesday 19th February 7-8pm
Tuesday 25th February 7-8pm

I will send you the Zoom link prior to session.

Tickets are £5.50 or £10.50, choose whatever you like. No questions asked. If you're really broke, please get in touch and let me know and I'll invite you for free. No Money, no Barrier, The More, the Merrier.
