Talk and Draw: The Madonna and Child with Saints image
Synopsis:

Lecturer Caroline Miller and artist educator Joanna Conybeare explore Parmigianino’s ‘The Madonna and Child with Saints’, currently featured in our exhibition ‘Parmigianino: The Vision of Saint Jerome’.
First, listen to a brief talk, then respond by making your own work in this short, artist-led drawing session. Please have to hand a sharp pencil, paper and a rubber.
 
The session will take place online and will last about one hour.
Sometimes we might suggest using different drawing or craft materials, so, if you are able to, please keep a pencil case of different colours, a ruler and a pair of scissors nearby, as well as anything else you might like to experiment with.
 
This session will be accompanied by live speech-to-text transcription supported by Stagetext.
