Materials

You need to bring your own sketchbook but all other materials including stools will be provided by us. It needs to be A3 and ring bound and ideally made from recycled paper such as the ARTWAY ENVIRO spiral bound Recycled Sketchbook in A3 which are made in the UK. To order click here.

Stools are provided by the V&A.

I provide pencils, rubbers, sharpeners, pastels and water pens. If you would like to bring/use any other materials please feel free to do so but bear in mind that only dry materials are allowed within the V&A, no paints.

What to wear and bring

The V & A can be a bit drafty so I suggest that you bring a couple of comfortable layers that won’t restrict you while you are drawing and its a good idea to bring a reusable  water bottle to drink from during the drawing sessions as no other drinks are allowed in the galleries where we draw.

Lunch 

There is a break for lunch between 1.15pm and 2.15pm.
