Paying careful attention to Leonardo da Vinci's 'Virgin of the Rocks' through playful and exploratory mindful drawing exercises, we will investigate Leonardo’s fertile creativity, the materials he used, and his empathy for subject matters.

By experiencing just one painting on many levels, this in-depth exploration leads us to a greater appreciation of art and the world around us, which will serve as inspiration for our own drawing. 

We also consider how different senses can help us to see paintings afresh and respond to them in new ways.

'The Virgin of the Rocks' is the focus of our exhibition Leonardo: Experience a Masterpiece.
