Hedgerow Art and Alchemy - Summer.

Friday August 31st - Saturday 1st September

The workshops are in collaboration with Judy Patterson as Herbalist. We bring together recognition and use. We will cover many aspects and improve all round holistic understanding, awareness of shapes and properties. We will walk along a lane next to a river and use Drawing and Sketching to increase confidence in identifying plants and to investigate the possible healing potential, to be able to make useful personal notations of the flora in our hedgerows and to also be able to use them for our own healthy living. Different drawing and sketching technigues will be explored with an emphasis on use - there is no requirement to be skillful - some will use cameras to collect images for identification or creativity. Time will be set aside for painting and for the preparation of teas, tinctures and creams.The company is fun, we will have good food and hope the sun shines.
