This workshop will focus on process-led drawing - inspired by the land and its diverse ecosystems. The artist will share her knowledge of drawing to inspire practice that emphasises the importance of ecology. You will be encouraged to explore your surroundings and craft social narratives through walking and drawing, all within an art-centred framework. Collaboration will play a vital role in the process, fostering innovative mark-making techniques and various drawing methods. Suitable for artists or anyone interested in drawing.
Henshaw’s artistic approach is deeply rooted in experimental drawing practice, using a variation of materials and techniques. Looking at multicultural influences on drawing from India and other places she has travelled to, she works with pigments & inks whilst focusing on the natural environment.
Public Presentation | Sat. 15 Feb., 2 – 4pm
