"Paying attention is a form of reciprocity with the living world, receiving the gifts with open eyes and open heart." (Robin Wall Kimmerer)
Join Sarah Gittins for one or more of these walking and drawing workshops responding to signature trees in Craigmillar Castle Park. The focus is on drawing but walking will be part of the pleasure. No experience of drawing necessary.
Sarah Gittins is a visual artist and educator, working across a variety of media, with a particular focus on drawing, painting and printmaking. Her work explores issues of social and ecological justice and pays close attention to the wonders of the living world. Sarah is interested in the capacity of image making to enable engagement, conversation and action for change. Alongside making and exhibiting work, Sarah has facilitated creative workshops and taught drawing, painting and printmaking in a wide range of community and educational settings over the course of two decades.
Everyone is welcome. No prior experience necessary.
A collaboration between Art Walk Projects, Bridgend Farmhouse and Edinburgh & Lothians Greenspace Trust
