Join us for Drink & Draw, a relaxed drawing class hosted in The Tetley Bar & Kitchen.
This month's session takes inspiration from the Leeds West Indian Carnival which usually takes place at the end of August.
Using watercolours and a mixture of carnival music, the session aims to explore drawing, movement and colour whilst celebrating Europe's longest running authentic Caribbean carnival.
About
This event is intended for adults.
Drink & Draw is The Tetley's regular series of live drawing events, inviting you to get creative in a relaxed, sociable atmosphere.
Herfa Thompson is a London-born artist, currently based in Leeds. She studied Sculpture and Environmental Art at The Glasgow School of Art. Having grown up in Southern Africa, Thompson experienced frustration that her return to the UK was not made to feel like a return home. Her work explores a world where brown bodies are peacefully and joyfully existing, referencing nostalgic memories of her time in Africa and Martinique, as well as exploring the relationship between humans and bodies of water.
