About the event
Everyone (above 14 years) is welcome and no drawing experience is needed! Come along and try out some sketching with charcoal and pencil as Kay leads this walk and workshop in the fantastic Dartmoor landscape. Kay will bring drawing boards, charcoal, pencils and some paper. If you would like to bring any other artist’s materials, are very welcome to do so. You will be able to carry your own board and paper during the walk. The walk is mainly along the railway but we will be on uneven, rocky terrain. Please dress for Dartmoor, bring a hot drink, a mid morning snack and something to sit on.
