***EVENT CANCELLED**
LAF has teamed up with Liverpool Independent Art School (LIAS) to produce a series of exciting Urban Sketching Workshops open to all artists from beginners to seasoned pros.
The theme of this year’s festival is Neighbourhoods and our workshops will explore how the idea of ‘Neighbourhood’ can be explored by sketching on location.
We will look at what gives a neighbourhood its unique identity by looking at recognisable landmarks or the layers of old and new. We’ll seek out the places where people gather for conversation which could be anywhere from a bus stop to a café.
You will only need drawing paper, drawing media, (e.g pen, pencil). Instruction will be given and the workshop will go on regardless of the weather.
The workshop will be led by Andrea Stables
Andrea is a Illustrator, artist and urban sketcher, influenced by realism.
She has a first class BA Hons degree in Graphic Design and Illustration from the Liverpool School of Art and Design at LJMU.
Andrea's practice includes drawing, painting, print making, 3D modelling, paper engineering and sketch book making. Her favourite medium changes by the day, but she regularly works in ink, acrylic, oil, gouache, watercolour and she also create digital artworks.
Creating, and being among creatives, is incredibly important to Andrea and she truly believes art is essential for wellbeing and should be accessible to all.
