Gallery Sketchers

Whether you are a beginner or experienced artist our art educator Fiona Cabassi will guide and assist you in developing your drawing skills. Artworks on display will broaden your perspectives and inspire creativity.

May Gallery Sketchers;

Come along and join Gallery Sketchers this May, where we will explore the technique of frottage – a surrealist and ‘automatic’ method, that involves using pencils or wax crayons to create a rubbing of a textured surface. We will then explore how to incorporate these rubbings into our sketching which will be inspired by either the exhibition Big Smart or the iconic architecture of Incinerator Gallery.

BYO materials or use ours. You will need a sketchbook (A3 or A4 size), pencils (HB, 2B, 4B), an eraser and sharpener.
