Sunday Workshop. People Faces and Figures

April 24, 2018 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sunday April 22 ’18 A smaller group this time due to some last minute postponements, but great for those who attended. We’d be doing a lot of looking at shape, page planning and use of simple colour, with as few as 3 colours. One of our more experienced sketchers took the chance to refresh this particular class and was delighted with the results. All out sketchers let go and had that pen racing around the page making delicious shapes and […]

Sunday Workshop. Colour & Collage

February 27, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sunday February 26 ’17 We had a wonderful creative day in the studio with the rain bucketing down outside. Three universal themes emerged, the love for family, travel and friends. These would then be the foundation for what would create. First we made textured backgrounds using stencils, scratching tools, gel medium, gesso, gouache and watercolour and added our personal elements on top such as photos, postage stamps, favourite quotes and fabric.Sometimes we added more layers for depth or just because […]

Sunday Workshop. Learning to See

February 14, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sunday February 12 ’17.  We’d had some requests to run another New Workshop very soon after the previous one, because some missed out. A lovely mix of sketchers keen to gain those core skills and feel more confident when sketching on their own whether on Gold Coast or elsewhere where our classes are not yet available. Once we’re all gathered to start our day, we have tea or coffee, get to know our fellow Sketchers and our sketch Kits. Then into […]

Summer Sketching. Loose line sketching

January 13, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

Summer Sketching. Tuesday Jan 10, Thursday January 12 Somehow when temperatures rose to over 38 degrees this week, our Summer Sketchers carried on and produced some magnificent work. Fika Swedish Kitchen was our venue for Tuesday and it was lovely to see sketchers who’ve been with us over the years, coming along to enjoy the morning including some overseas sketchers joining us on both days. Kathy was our tutor this week and had people using continuous line as beautiful leave forms with exotic […]
