Workshops 2008 / 2009
Ann's workshops do get booked up very quickly but even so it's worth placing your name on the waiting list as spaces often become available due to cancellations.

Studio Workshops
Ann teaches her own methods of working with pencil and coloured pencil to produce vibrant, detailed botanical drawings. As well as introducing colour pencil techniques the courses encourage accuracy of line and observation. Ann welcomes both the beginner and the more experienced on her courses. Courses tend to get booked up quickly so to secure a place make a provisional booking.

Ann is currently researching to find a suitable venue in northern or central Italy to run a workshop. Do email Ann if you know of a suitable place. We need excellent food, ensuite facilities, interesting or scenic surroundings plus, most importantly, a spacious and light room in which to work.
