As an introduction to drawing, this workshop, "Drawing for Beginners," is a relaxed exploration of mark marking using natural forms for inspiration. Sharon's workshops are designed to help you gain confidence to draw from observation. As well as exploring mark making on paper, you will also use mono printing to develop drawing skills using a wide variety of marks. She also challenges her students to explore composition using their drawings. All materials are provided and places are limited to 8 as she likes to spend plenty of time with everyone during her workshops. Sharon is an experienced art teacher who focuses on developing student's confidence to explore their creativity using many different techniques. Biography Sharon Akers Having taught Art and Design in schools and colleges for over 30 years, I am now working independently offering a wide range of art workshops. My classes (AkersArtClasses) are always geared towards exploration for all abilities. They are relaxed and informal with the aim that each student takes away at least one piece of artwork. Although sculpture and mixed media is my preferred medium for my own work, having taught art for so long, I can cater for a wide variety of techniques and materials. I often use the beautiful surrounding Chiltern Downs for my inspiration and enjoy walking, looking, photographing and collecting before creating artwork in the studio.

A one off class for beginners, you’ll have a chance to make a piece of jewellery (like a ring, a pendant or some earrings) during this session. You’ll learn some basic metalworking skills, including sawing, filing, soldering and polishing to create your piece. Metal costs are not included in the course price as they vary depending on your designs. Usually students create a silver ring/pendant in this session, and typcially each person spends between £5 and £15. You tutor will make sure to keep you informed before you make a final decision. You can take this class more than once and create different pieces each time, and if you fall in love with the process and want to learn more, we have regular weekly classes where people work at their own level and learn many more skills for more advanced projects. If you have any questions, please contact us! Information Source: The Jewellery Business | eventbrite
