I had a wonderful afternoon teaching two primary school classes how to draw lunar craters. They all did such a fantastic job! I hope the school send me some photos of their work so I can share them :)

Here is a collage of sketches of crater produced during my workshop at Basingstoke AS last night. Most people were massively out of their comfort zone but every single sketch produced was amazing! I'm so proud of everyone :-)
