About

Gallery educator Bethan Durie and artist educator Marc Woodhead explore Laurits Andersen Ring's 'Road in the Village of Baldersbrønde (Winter Day)', our Picture of the Month for December.

First, listen to a brief talk, then respond by making your own work in this short, artist-led drawing session. Please have to hand a sharp pencil, paper and a rubber.

The session will take place online and will last about one hour.

Sometimes we might suggest using different drawing or craft materials, so, if you are able to, please keep a pencil case of different colours, a ruler and a pair of scissors nearby, as well as anything else you might like to experiment with.

This session will be accompanied by live speech-to-text transcription supported by Stagetext.
