Cornwall Coastline Online Workshops

Welcome to Ian Fennelly's Cornwall Coastline Workshop Tour! In this series of four online workshops Ian sketches scenes from the gorgeous Cornish coastline and shares his sketching process. Watch over Ian's shoulder in real time as he goes from blank page to completed sketch--from composing the sketch to creating a basic outline, then splashing in some background colour, then calming adding depth and tone with grey markers, then really going deeper with all the lovely details. Students can sketch along with the reference photos provided.

	SKETCH MEVAGISSEY For this workshop, Ian chose the charming seaside port called Mevagissey on the English Channel. This workshop is filmed in real time (1 hour 49 minutes) and students can sketch along with the reference photo provided or they can apply the techniques they learn in this workshop to a reference photo of their own. $39.99USD.
	SKETCH PORT ISAAC Ian travels north to Port Isaac on the Atlantic coast to find inspiration for his next online workshop. The iTV series Doc Martin was filmed here and it is home to the sea shanty singing group, Fisherman's Friends. In this 1 hour 41 minute workshop students are encouraged to sketch and hatch and stipple and splash along with Ian as he creates a gorgeous sketch of this charming village. $39.99USD
	SKETCH PORTLOE In this workshop we're going to sketch the gorgeous little coastal town of Portloe, UK. Here Ian captures the spirit of the place--the salty seabreeze, the seagulls "pinching your chips", and the crab and lobster trawlers. In this 1 hour 48 minute workshop students are invited to sketch along with Ian or choose from one of the other 4 optional photos provided. $39.99USD
	SKETCH POLPERRO I'm really excited to sketch this location with you! Polperro is one of the oldest settlements in Cornwall going back to the 14th century, with an interesting history that has to do with smuggling! We're going to capture all the higgly piggly little cottages going up the hill and the shoreline. $39.99USD
