Social drawing at Incinerator Gallery

Theme for June:

Experimenting with texture will be the focus this month. Drawing a variety of textures can create a visually engaging drawing full of complexity and contrast. We will experiment with different ways to draw texture by incorporating various techniques in mark making, and by using a variety of pencils and tools. The exhibitions currently on show at Incinerator Gallery are filled with textural inspiration from fabrics to metalwork, through to ceramics and photographs rich with natural textural elements. We look forward to seeing you!

All materials are provided but feel free to bring your own pencils too.
