Social drawing at Incinerator Gallery

Theme for May:

Come along and enjoy Gallery Sketchers in May, and take time out to reconnect with your creativity. We will continue to explore the current series of exhibitions, where the artists have experimented with materials and techniques to create rich and textural work full of meaning. Taking our cue from these artists and their experimental approaches we will explore combining papier collé with drawing. Papier collé is where a variety of torn or cut paper is pasted onto the drawing surface; this paper collage will provide a background for your drawing for the morning’s session. 

All materials will be provided but feel free to bring your own materials if you wish.

Recommended for people of all drawing abilities
