Workshops
Dive into a unique creative experience with our Underwater Inks Workshop on the 14th October! Explore the ways ink behaves beneath the surface of water, creating flowing patterns, unexpected textures, and beautiful abstract effects.
During the workshop, you’ll experiment with different inks, brush techniques and colours. We will also guide you through special techniques such as salts, masking fluids and alcohol while discovering how movement, water, and gravity can shape your artwork. No previous artistic experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and a willingness to get a little experimental.
What to expect:
- Technique testing: We’ll guide you through a range of techniques on practice sheets
- Warmup exercise: Creating a jellyfish image using the techniques just learnt
- Final image: Create an underwater inspired image whether it’s a whale, fish, turtle…the choice is yours!
No drawing experience is necessary. We have templates but of course, the option is there to draw freehand if preferred!
Come along, have fun, and create something completely your own!

Join us for an evening of creative drawing as you create your own expressive bird illustration using flowing ink washes and intricate pen patterns.
During the workshop, you'll explore how to build a bird using loose layers of ink before adding texture, detail and personality with fine-line pen work. We'll experiment with mark-making, feather patterns, botanical elements and decorative details to create a striking contemporary illustration that's completely unique to you.
You'll be guided through each stage of the process, from creating soft, atmospheric ink backgrounds to adding bold linework and intricate pattern. Whether you prefer realistic birds or a more imaginative, stylised approach, you'll leave with an artwork that's full of character.
This relaxed workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as anyone looking to develop their illustration or mixed-media skills.
