About the Workshop:
This is a one day workshop that will show you how to sketch landscapes and buildings in the landscape with pen and watercolour pencil. You will be shown how to use the pen both before and after in conjunction with a coloured pencil that can be used wet and dry. Other techniques include colour mixing, perspective and how to use the pen to create expressive sketches. Ideal for beginners and students with some knowledge of the medium.
