Make your Mark - Immersive drawing weekend experience

Friday 24th to Sunday 26th April 2026

Step away from the everyday and immerse yourself in a weekend of creativity, inspiration, and artistic growth. Guided by Dylan's years of artistic practice, you'll explore mark-making as both craft and expression, drawing not just what you see, but what you feel. Our home for the weekend, Burmieston Steading rests in the wild beauty of Little Glenshee, a place where hills, light and sky invite you to slow down, look deeply, and let your creativity breathe.

Your Journey
Gentle warm-ups to awaken the hand eye and your imagination
Outdoor sketching among shifting light and textured landscapes
Experimentation with mark-making and composition

Whether you're beginning your drawing journey or returning to it with fresh eyes, this is an opportunity to inhabit your art fully to see, feel, and translate the world through your own line.
