1 Day Art Workshops
The Art Workshops have wrapped up for another year and Karen would personally like to thank all the wonderfully talented Artists who came to both May and August’s 2018 Art Workshops and made the weekends fun and relaxed.
Hope to see you next year where there will be a brand new addition to my Coloured pencil Workshops where I will be tutoring large format drawings - first stop, A Big Cat!
Stay tuned!
