The Big Draw
Posted by Kate Sullivan
This month, drawing goes national with the ninth annual Big Draw event. Its aim is to show "that drawing is the perfect medium for observation, self expression and fun."
"The Big Draw proves that drawing is an enjoyable public activity as well as a private passion. It is inspired by the visionary Victorian artist and writer, John Ruskin. His mission was not to teach people how to draw, but how to see."
All around the country, events for all ages are being held in museums, heritage and environmental sites, galleries, schools and art clubs. Participants are invited to explore different drawing techniques using a variety of mediums such as clay, chalks, pastels, digital imagery, pencils and crayons.
