Holiday with Drawing From Nature Classes, Alvaston Hall, with Warner Leisure Hotels.Inspired by the wonders of nature. Artists have been inspired by nature since painting and drawing began: there is never a shortage of materials to recreate and each new plant or creature presents its own demands.
Our expert host for this break, Neville Walters, has spent decades working as a freelance professional illustrator and he will teach you proven techniques to help you to create careful and accurate drawings – starting with the way you actually look at a plant.
The course is open to all standards – from beginners through to people keen to hone their drawing skills; and over two full day sessions, Neville will help you apply the lessons and tips he is passing on. You’ll have a wide choice of plants and flowers to choose from, as well as a range of different drawing materials.
“So many people are now finding the time to take up art as a hobby,” says Neville, “and drawing from nature is a great way to start – you’re literally following in the footsteps of artists like Beatrix Potter who was able to draw what she saw realistically but also with great feeling.
“After many years as an illustrator, I am still finding new things to draw, new challenges to rise to. I hope that, after this course, people will feel inspired to take their pens, pencils and paper – perhaps even their watercolours and oils - and go out into the countryside or garden and make this the starting point of an engrossing and very rewarding pursuit.”
