Green Sketching Events

I LOVE introducing people to the joys and benefits of green sketching. 

I’ve worked with avid hikers and lifelong townies; exhausted mums and anxious children, moorland experts and troubled teens; professionals facing burnout and jaded scientists responding to the whispers of creativity. 

It doesn’t matter whether you’re 7 or 70, we all benefit from slowing down, relaxing and reconnecting with nature. 

That’s why it’s time you helped the people in your life put down their phones and pick up a pencil. Less screen time. More green time! 

 Green sketching events

Green sketching events come in many different shapes and sizes, including keynote talks, festival and conference events, school sketching clubs, guided doodle walks, 1:1 sessions, birthday parties, corporate and wellness workshops.

Most of my workshops and events are held outdoors but I also do online talks and training. 

Email me and we can chat about what sort of green sketching event might work best for you and your people.
