Still Life with Mathew Lynn / Term Class

NB. Term 4 is an 8 week term only. Please check the dates carefully. There will be a break on Wednesday 3 December.

Suitable for all levels

Let award winning artist Mathew Lynn be your guide in this nine-week course exploring Still Life (and objects in space). This will be an opportunity for you to examine and strengthen your existing traditional still life practice, or you might like to take this opportunity to experiment and explore how objects important to you inhabit special spaces. Mathew will also refer to great still life artists and works both from the past and contemporary art, to help bring a wider sense of continuity and possibility in this genre we share.

Mathew can help you with anything from traditional drawing and rendering, learning how to ‘see’, and academic tonalism, through to exploring how to completely rebuild your practice through experimentation, and perceiving your stimulus in less representational ways.

Mathew likes to work one-on-one fairly quickly within each session, setting specific individual exercises and goals where necessary, tuning into and encouraging your personal vision and the way you see the world. He also likes to work with people of all skill levels, and will make you feel comfortable while providing specific challenges for you.

This is a course to consolidate your existing skills, or exploration, and you can use any medium or approach. Mathew may recommend initial studies and processes which you can then incorporate into your main works.
