We take a rough track down from the main road\, before crossing open ground to reach a waterfall near Swindale Head. We will stop at at a number of different viewpoints as we move from the moorlands to the valley and discuss the different features that we can use to make an interesting composition\, with simple techniques to get them down in a sketchbook – as well as considering some of the abstract qualities to be found in the landscape.” – Janet Swailes \nYou will be provided with a small sketchbook\, a pencil\, and a view finder – and will have the opportunity to try out other sketching materials. \nTechniques: \n• Composition – quick thumbnail sketches Using a view finder to gather a number of quick impressions of the views you see; testing ideas and arrangements with quick sketches. Scaling features in your sketch using a pencil to measure. \n• Mark making – experimental drawing and mixed media Experimenting with gestural and expressive mark making\, with a focus on drawing practice; getting more out of line and working with resists. \nThe High Helbeck Green Recovery Fund Project is a partnership project between estate owners Ben & Nicolete Blackett-Ord\, the North Pennines AONB Partnership\, the RSPB\, the Woodland Trust and Natural England. The Defra-backed project runs from January 2021 to March 2022 and a key part of the scheme is to deliver significant biodiversity benefits to the High Helbeck estate (near Brough\, Cumbria) including 80 hectares of peatland restoration\, an increase in trees and scrub\, covering 153 hectares\, and a series of small wetlands to enhance 85 hectares of habitat for breeding wading birds. \nPlease note there is around a 1 mile walk to the main sketching area and therefore a 1 mile walk back.  Part of the walk is on the B6276\, some on track and some is on uneven ground. The walk into and out of the estate is down/up a steep bank. Consequently\, this event requires attendees to have a basic level of fitness. Please ensure you dress for the weather and bring sturdy walking boots. No food or drink is provided but please feel free to bring your own packed lunch. There is a toilet near the main sketching area and shelter too if needed. No dogs are permitted on the High Helbeck walks. \nMeeting Point – Deadman Gill Layby – grid reference – NY823188. If you are unsure of directions\, please contact Chris Jones (cjones@northpenninesaonb.org.uk). Please car share where possible as parking is very limited.
