Suitable for experienced intermediate and advanced students.
This is a workshop for more experienced painters where you’ll be encouraged to bring your own work for discussion and feedback.
I will help you realise your own ideas technically and find inspiration in contemporary art practice. Subject will be up to you and working in a larger format on paper or canvas is welcome.
The workshop will start with a group exercise that’s aimed at limbering up and helping you to focus on creative mark making. Some mixed media materials will be suggested for you to experiment with.
