Drawing to Painting Summer Workshop in the stunning Hunter Valley with Sandra Blackburne Saturday

Saturday 30th November to Sunday 1st December 2024

Hi Everyone, I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be holding a two day Summer Workshop here in The Hunter Valley, starting on the 30th November to the 1st of December.
Our last workshop was fully subscribed and we have three spots left so get in quick if you’d like to join us.

The workshops are a combination of drawing outdoors and painting in my studio. Our workshops are designed to help you gain confidence, loosen up and confidently work from your own
drawings. You will have demonstrations on both the Plein air and studio aspects of the workshops.

The painting ‘Lizard Mountain’ included in the flyer, and on the Home Page, was made during our last workshop from drawings done on site, at Watershed Winery in Broke. Demonstrations in both drawing and painting show just how it evolved.

Session 1

  • Saturday 30th November
  • 9.30 am to 4 pm (~ 6.5 hours)
  • Plein air and Studio 

Participants join us Saturday morning. Meet at Sandra’s Hunter Valley Studio, No 2 Spotted Gum Drive Pokolbin at 9.30. We will then head out to our location in the Valley with views of the vineyards and Broke Range where we will be painting and sketching Plein air for approximately 3 hours, returning to The Studio for lunch and painting in the afternoon.

Session 2

  • Sunday 1st December
  • 9 am – 3 pm (~ 6 hours)
