Thumbnail Sketchbook with Sinead Lawson

Date

Thumbnail sketching is lovely easy way to introduce yourself to the art of sketching. The method involves looking through a viewfinder and limiting the image you sketch to what you see though this viewfinder. It's a very clever technique that delivers results in a focused uninhibited way. 

During the workshop we hope to be able to go outside for to sketch, weather permitting, we're optimistic :) You'll go home with first few pages of you're wonderful new sketchbook complete and the knowledge and technique you need to fill the rest of the book.

The cost of the workshop includes an Indian 100% cotton handmade sketch book (retail €13.00). The workshop is limited to 6 people.


Sinéad is a mixed media artist who enjoys using all sorts of techniques. As well as sketching she also gives workshops in printing, paper embroidery and bookbinding. Sinead’s gel print work is featured in the book ‘Gelli Arts Printing Guide’ by Suzanne McNeill.

Fantastic Workshop - Thumbnail Workshop

Such a lovely, relaxed, informative morning with Sinead. Sinead is a fantastic teacher and has a lovely way of explaining how to let go of perfectionism and relax into creating. It was lovely to go outside and practice using the viewfinder and draw some pieces. I enjoyed making the collage of one of the pieces that I drew. I would highly recommend this workshop and I am enjoying using the viewfinder to draw since I took the workshop.

It was a very inspiring morning, a lovely relax atmosphere. We were well guided by Sineád in practical ways but also helping us, or just me! To let go of perfectionism and to find beauty in simple lines, rather than trying too capture too much. I am,at the moment, continuing to work on what I did last Saturday. Great value.
