What a day will look like:
The start of a day will be with a gentle wander around Sagamore. Absorbing ideas, gathering anything you find that piques your interest and or finding a happy spot sitting sketching, noting or just looking.
We will then return to the Hen House and start exploring the joy of mark making. I will have a few examples for exploration and show a few ways to get started.
Lunch break
Optional wander and finding mission.
Back to the Hen House for more creating.
