Christmas Urban Sketching Workshop: Leadenhall Market

Capture the festive atmosphere of a London Victorian Market in this drawing class.



2.5 hours Location Fenchurch Street Class size 1 to 10 guests   £65

Capture architectural details, shop fronts and Christmas charm in this fun 2.5 hour sketching workshop in one of London's finest Victorian markets. You will be shown a variety of sketching techniques, including working with pen, pencils and markers, adding loose line work and colour accents, and creating a lively graphic narrative in your sketchbook.
You may choose to hone in on a close-up detail, such as a historic dragon motif, a festive wreath or a characterful doorway. There will also be the opportunity to step back and sketch the grand view of the market, or explore the narrow alleyways—capturing the unique character of the architecture with a touch of perspective.
Natalie will guide you through a sequence of exercises that aim to improve your confidence and develop your sketching style. You’ll also receive a bespoke pocket drawing guide for the day, with tailored prompts for the session, along with a few historical facts including the market's theatrical history.
A festive, creative, and entertaining experience. You'll leave with a lively and creative visual story of your morning at the market, captured in your sketchbook.
