Course overview
*Braw means "Fine, good looking, or pleasant - something nice".
Our workshop coincides with the birthday of the celebrated Scots poet Robbie Burns - so
the drawings we do will have a Scottish flavour.
We’ll use the theme to help us explore various ideas, experiments and drawing exercises
- some quick, some slower.
Aim: to create lots of drawings, and have fun!
