The Thursday Evening Drawing Underbelly

The Thursday Evening Underbelly Drawing workshops will form a series of drawing workshops that pop up in between the normal running of Thursday Evenings at Eye to Pencil. They are a chance to take stock of the events of the week before and offer a ruminatory and tangential roam through drawing and things on the minds of Molly Andrews and Alex Heard. They’ll be running three workshops this Summer term, which span disorientation, personal narrative and a non-stop group exercise linking drawing and speaking.
