50 Minutes Looking and Sketching Autumn Leaves

By Sheila Ceccarelli

A must do this autumn! With rich colours and shapes everywhere, a wonderful opportunity to use sketching to tune into this beautiful time of the year.

This was a short session, where teenagers were led on guided drawing exercises, in their sketchbooks, to get them looking and drawing.

Many thanks to Pink Pig Sketchbooks for the beautiful bespoke AccessArt sketchbooks which were greatly appreciated by the teenagers and used during this ‘Experimental Drawing Class’.
