In this beginner's paleoart workshop, we'll be looking to draw a Smilodon, perhaps the most famous of the extinct sabre-toothed cats. The workshop will take you through the practical drawing techniques necessary to draw animals realistically, friendly to total beginners and more intermediate artists alike. We'll also be delving into the science behind how artists approach reconstructions using fossil materials, modern analogues (in this case, animals like lions or tigers), inferences from the extinct animal's behaviour, and lots of imagination! This workshop is perfect for anyone interested in the crossover of science and art, palaeontology and biology enthusiasts, or just anyone who's interested in learning to draw animals realistically.
Class size will be kept small to allow for plenty of one-to-one tuition. All materials for drawing with graphite and colour pencil are provided, but you are welcome to bring your own drawing materials if preferred.
The workshop is 15+ but children over 10 can attend with an adult.

This is simply a dream castle. When I arrived, it was the April holiday, and there were almost no people on the road. Only the ancient buildings stood in the cold air, solemn and heavy, which made people feel awe.

We came here on a spontaneous visit one Sunday afternoon in January and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our wee boy loved seeing the &ldquo;old fashioned house&rdquo; and was so well looked after by all the staff, from the cash register to the flat and back out again.

We went round twice (with a shift change between visits!) and the insight into one story of no doubt thousands like it in Glasgow was fantastic. Plus our boy thoroughly enjoyed colouring in his wallie dug. A hidden gem that is well worth the wander through Garnethill.

This museum is a place where people have to punch in. I especially like the oil paintings in the museum. After seeing it, I feel a great enjoyment. The museum is also a favorite place for primary and secondary school students.

It is said that it can be traced back to the famous William Conquest period. It was built to commemorate St. Diego. It took hundreds of years to build and has been around for nearly a thousand years. It is the oldest religious building in the entire Scottish region. It is also a must-see for tourists.

George Square is located in Glasgow city center and is very conveniently accessible by train or subway. On nice days, you can sunbathe and watch pigeons in the square. It is close to the famous shopping street, where you can buy souvenirs, clothes, shoes and socks. There are also many restaurants and eateries to choose from. 
George Square is a must-see attraction. In addition to admiring the architecture of the square;during different festivals, such as Christmas, the square is built into a Christmas Market, becoming a dynamic and happy atmosphere.
