See + Sketch + Play: Two-Day Sketchbook Workshop with Becky Blair: your questions answered
Do I need any drawing experience?
No. The workshop is open to all levels, from complete beginners to experienced artists. It's about exploring and playing, not producing a perfect drawing.
Do I need to come to both days?
Yes. It's a two-day workshop, and Day 2 builds on the sketchbook work you create on Day 1, so your ticket covers both days.
What will I take home?
Your layered sketchbook pages, a handmade mini sketchbook and finished small works on artist-quality watercolour paper, plus fresh ideas for keeping up a regular sketchbook habit.
What materials will we use?
Japanese watercolours, coloured pencils, inks and gold foil, with watercolour paper for the Day 2 pieces.
How old do I need to be?
The workshop is for adults 18+. 16 and 17 year olds are welcome when booked with a parent or guardian.
When does the early bird price end?
The early bird price of £190 is available until 3 December 2026. From 4 December, tickets are £230.
Where is West Hove Studio?
