Graphite Pencil Workshop

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll explore the techniques used to create realistic drawings using graphite pencils. With a focus on nature as inspiration, you’ll learn how to observe and replicate the intricate textures found in the world around us – whether it’s the rough bark of a tree or the delicate veins of a leaf. This workshop is perfect for beginner to intermediate artists looking to sharpen their skills and deepen their appreciation for fine detail.

Your artist for the day is Karen, a talented coloured pencil artist based in Albury, NSW. Known for her close-up studies of the natural world, Karen invites viewers to slow down and truly see the beauty in nature’s finer details. She brings a calm, insightful approach to teaching that encourages observation, patience and precision.
