SKETCH DOODLE DRAW LIVE… IN LIVERPOOL!

To kick off the live tour we start in Rachael’s home city of LIVERPOOL, UK on Monday May 16, 2016!

Where: Palm House, Sefton Park, Liverpool, L17 1AP, UK

When: Monday May 16, 2016

Time: 12:30pm – 3:30pm (3 hours)

Cost: Absolutely FREE!

Drawing theme: Botanicals

Join Rachael & the Make it in Design team in the serene setting of the beautiful Palm House in Sefton Park, a Victorian glasshouse displaying plants from around the world.

In this BOTANICALS themed informal event, Rachael will show you how she gathers pattern inspiration from nature – one of her favourite subject matters! She’ll explain how her early signature style of layering, textures & quirky hand drawn line-work developed & how these nature-inspired patterns have led to some of her most popular work to now feature on many different products including homeware, stationery, textiles & many others which are sold around the world.

Whether you’re a professional artist or a complete novice, we’d love you to join us. This free drawing event will provide much encouragement, fun & insight into the pattern techniques Rachael uses as a professional artist & give you the opportunity to meet the Make it in Design team, ask any questions & get creative!

Rachael will be on-site for three hours in the afternoon (from 12:30pm – 3:30pm) & during this time you can pop along for 20 minutes, an hour or for the full three hours – it’s a free for all, anything goes, no pressure fun drawing activity for designers, friends & the local community.

As a free, open event, anyone visiting the Palm House that day – old & young – will be invited to join in too, the more the merrier!

We’ll be handing out FREE goody bags on a first come first served basis with sketch pads, pens & other delights, so come down early if you don’t want to miss out!
