I'm a coloured pencil artist, teacher and founder of Bonny Snowdon Academy, and there's nothing I love more than sharing my passion for drawing with others!
One of my favourite things is showing people that drawings which might look really complicated are often much more achievable than they first seem. It's all about breaking things down, understanding your pencils and taking things one step at a time.
And that's exactly what we'll be doing over these 12 days!
I'll be sharing plenty of tips and techniques along the way, but most importantly, I want you to enjoy yourself, learn something new and have a little time doing something creative this Christmas.
