Southern Ocean Sketchbook by Claudia Myatt - Plus tips for sketching afloat - Booking Open

Suffolk artist, Claudia Myatt, is known for her cartoons and illustrations in yachting magazines as well as for the 'RYA Go Sailing' series of books. She likes to take her sketchbook to the world's wild places and in recent years she's been lucky enough to travel to Antarctica, South Georgia and the Southern Ocean. Join us for a fascinating evening with Claudia as she shares with us her sketches and tales of sailing round Cape Horn as well as travelling to Antarctica with the Royal Navy on board icebreaker, HMS Protector.

Plus, Claudia will give us some tips on what to take to enable us to make our own sketches whilst afloat.
