HOW TO DRAW IN CHARCOAL WORKSHOPS
On the 9th, 16th and the 30th August, I am hosting three, one day ‘How to Draw in Charcoal’ Workshops. You will learn about the wonderful medium, how to use it in different ways to produce your very own drawing to take home with you! The workshops will commence from 09:30-16:30 with afternoon tea/lunch included in the price of £90.00.
Each workshop is limited to just 6 places so please book early to avoid disappointment. Just contact me through this website or by email!

Tess Dawson is a fine artist,
who creates portraits in watercolour or pencil, that convey an emotional connection that’s captured through her unique, realistic style for those who want an endearing and soulful heirloom to treasure for years to come. She does this through her use of colour, depth and texture especially focusing on the eyes, which have been said to be “the windows to the soul.” She depicts not only the likeness but also the essence of who she is creating the portrait of.​
