Drawing the Landscape: en plein air with Isabelle Devos
Coinciding with the current exhibition Drawing from the Collection we have a Sunday morning workshop in landscape drawing. Join local artist Isabelle Devos in the Black Gully reserve at NERAM to learn how to capture the landscape en plein air.
This workshop is for beginners to intermediate levels, learning composition, lines, shading, using graphite and pen+ink.
What is en plein air? This term translates directly to in the open air, and is used to describe the process of painting or drawing a landscape outdoors.
If the weather is not good, the group will work in the Packsaddle studio from photos. Participants are asked to bring a photo of their favourite landscape just in case.
For adults and 16yrs +
