Sketching and Painting Workshop Led by Lisa Tompkins
Celebrate the quiet beauty of ordinary things in this gentle, reflective workshop inspired by Brighton artist Sally Smith, whose still-life paintings honour the stories held in the simple, familiar and everyday objects.
- Discover beauty in the simple and familiar
- Play with shape, and arrangement
- Sketch from life using objects that matter to you
- Start your own small “still life book of memories” celebrating the things you love
Please bring a meaningful item, nothing special, just something familiar: a mug, a trinket, a flower, a piece of jewellery, or any object with a quiet story attached.
‘Art often hides in the things we touch every day:
The pattern on a cup, the curve of a bowl, the colours of home,
the objects we keep for reasons we can’t always explain.’
Join us to slow down, notice more, and sketch what matters.
The beauty is already there; we simply learn to notice it.
All materials included.
Ticket price includes a sketchbook, perfect for continuing your creative journey.
