Join local landscape painter Steve Pleydell-Pearce for Art in the Landscape - a creative day of sketching and painting inspired by nature and the vital restoration work happening across North Devon.

Guided by Steve, learn sketching & painting techniques, including quick sketching, close-up studies and landscape painting, as well as mixing colour with a reduced palette.

All materials are provided, including your own sketchbook to take home. Please dress for the weather and wear clothing suitable for walking and creativity, you might get a little messy!
