SUMMARY:Metal point drawing workshop
DESCRIPTION:Explore the unique qualities of metal point drawing in this Rooted in Lead workshop\, on Saturday 11th July\, 10.30am to 3.30pm at High Forest Community Centre\, Sinderhope. \nThe workshop is suitable for adults of all abilities. No previous drawing experience is needed and  will be led by artist Carole McCourt. You will draw using metals that directly reference the mining history of the North Pennines and the materials once extracted from its hillsides such as lead\, silver and copper. \nThe session begins with an introduction to historical metal point techniques\, learn how metal point works\, why artists have used it for centuries\, and what makes it so distinctive. \nYou will then create your own detailed botanical drawings inspired by the rare metalliferous plants that grow on former lead mining sites and explore the fine lines\, subtle tonal shifts and luminous qualities that metal point can produce. \nAll materials and refreshments provided. \nPlease book your place using the link to TicketSource
