Walk & Draw Club at Blaize Bailey

Join artist Henry St. Leger for a guided group walk in the breathtaking Forest of Dean. Along the way, Henry will introduce you to a variety of drawing techniques designed to help you capture your journey and see the landscape with fresh eyes.

These sessions are open to everyone—whether you’re picking up a pencil for the first time or are already an experienced artist. The emphasis is on creativity, exploration, and enjoying the natural world through art in an accessible, welcoming way.

This walk takes you up hill to the incredible views from Blaine Bailey which looks out over the Severn. The climb is a little steep but there are lots of stops on the way as we draw the surroundings.

What to expect:

• A gentle group walk through the Forest of Dean, with regular pauses to sketch and observe your surroundings

• Guidance from Henry on simple but effective drawing techniques to record your journey

• Time to experiment with your own style—no pressure, no rules

• A relaxed and supportive atmosphere, perfect for beginners and seasoned artists alike

• A chance to leave with your own visual journal of the day and a refreshed connection to nature
