The gardens were beautiful but it was freezing! We had to bring an A3 sketchbook and drawing equipment. The main ideas of the day were to be looking and recording the shape, pattern colour and texture. Over the day we did a series of drawing and paintings with the outcome in mind; a circle skirt.
To explore the different ways of recording the plants and flowers I used different drawing techniques. Using two colour pencils at the same time worked really well and also the 15 minute paintings in water colour.. Not as good as they might have been but they give a sense of the layers and shape and in there own sense create a pattern.
