Nature-Based Drawing & Watercolour with Sarah Hankinson
at the Old Cheese Factory, Berwick

Step into the peaceful surroundings of the Old Cheese Factory and spend a relaxing session learning to draw, sketch, and paint the beauty of nature. Join artist and illustrator Sarah Hankinson for this hands-on Nature-Based Drawing & Watercolour Class, where you’ll explore botanical and still life art in a fun, encouraging atmosphere.

Working directly from nature, Sarah will guide you through the fundamentals of observational drawing — from line and shading to tone, colour, and composition. You’ll experiment with graphite, charcoal, and watercolour, learning new techniques while finding your own artistic style.

Designed for beginners and intermediate artists alike, this workshop encourages creative play, appreciation of the natural world, and confidence in your artistic journey. Sarah’s teaching blends traditional and contemporary methods, helping you relax, let go, and enjoy the process.

Each participant will take home a series of mixed-media studies and a finished botanical or still life artwork, along with a renewed sense of creativity and calm.

Come connect with nature, art, and community — and rediscover the joy of making!
