Fantastic Chairs
with Deb St Leger (Wardrop) and Pamela Shepherd
A two-hour workshop on looking, re-imagining and creative drawing.
Join experienced art educators and volunteer art guides, Deb and Pamela, for a drawing workshop inspired by TMAG’s current exhibition Gay Hawkes: The House of Longing. In this workshop you will learn to draw a 'fantastic' chair which will be an exercise in looking, re-imagining and creative drawing. Pamela and Deb will guide you through the exhibition, observing techniques, collecting ideas and recording details of Gay's work in drawings. Then back in the studio, taking your collected ideas and drawings, create a work of a 'fantastic' chair or chairs using a variety of drawing materials and decorative techniques.
