Hi my Creatives, 

We are taking all our workshops online!

In these classes I will go through how to paint from a reference picture in Charcoal and Pencil.

I would recommend to either have the picture printed or on screen for you to see during the class as this will be the reference you are working from.

You can download the  picture for free from my website or here:

​

The main goal of this class is to relax and be creative. I promise I will not be talking about current events. This time is meant to be mindful and fun and anyone is welcome to join! I would really love to see the pictures you have all made in the class so if you would like to share them on social media using the hashtag #makingsandmusings please do so and we can all see each others work and support one another.

​

ALL LEVELS ARE WELCOME!

​

The class will have the same format as my 'in person' classes.

1) I will explain what materials we will be using

2) I will show the different techniques we will be using

3) I will paint the picture together with you and explain what steps I am taking and why.

During the live stream I will be able to read your questions and answer them using my own painting as an example.

​

Materials:

• Sketch pencils in a variety of hardness*.
• Willow Charcoal*
• Compressed Charcoal*
• Bockingford  cold pressed drawing paper A3 300 GSM*
• simple eraser and kneeding eraser*
• pen eraser*

​

 If you do not have charcoal at home you are welcome to join using crayons or (sketch) pencils. However, by using charcoal you can create really dark shadows that are difficult to duplicate using pencils and you will get most out of this workshop if you use similar materials to those that I use.
