Drawing Inspiration: The Mindful Line - A Drawing Workshop for Art and Wellbeing
The Burrell Collection2060 Pollokshaws Road
Sun 11 Oct · 14:00
About this event
You don't need to think of yourself as "an artist" to join us. In this free workshop you'll pick up real drawing techniques from celebrated nineteenth-century artists working from a clothed life model to explore tone, colour and media while discovering how drawing steadies a busy mind. Deep concentration anchors your attention in the present and tips you into the state psychologists call flow: a simple, dependable way to ease stress and lift your mood. All levels welcome, whether it's your first time drawing or a long-loved practice, everyone can benefit from picking up a pencil and having a go! This session will take place from 2 pm – 4 pm. Details of how to get to the Burrell and info on car parking can be found on our website.

Same kind of night (exhibitions) in Glasgow. Spread across the week, not a ranking.
A different kind of night
Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
