On Saturday 18 April, architect Mark West will lead a workshop at Drawing Matter using a method he describes as ‘Drawing from Clouds’. It is an approach that allows you to see things, and draw things, you did not know; it is simultaneously invention and copying; a curious mixture of careful technique and automatic freedom. Tickets available now.
