Saturday 8th August, 10am-4pm at Cropthorne Village Hall, Cropthorne, Nr Pershore Worcestershire (WR10 3NH).

The focus on this acrylics workshop is painting with a loose, expressionistic approach, whilst there will be reference photos to work from you are encouraged to embrace spontaneity and develop your unique artistic voice.

We will be working with an underpainting to create a cohesive look and ‘mood’ for your painting. Adding texture paste (provided) to create interest and looseness in the foreground rocks and beach. Using both brushes and palette knives to apply thin glazes and thicker paint to create atmosphere, depth and movement.

There will be plenty of 1-2-1 guidance and support, demonstrations of techniques, and handouts to take home. A full materials list will be sent out to participants after booking.

Coffee and tea and biscuits provided throughout the day, please bring your own lunch.

Maximum of 10 people. Participants must be 18+

Reserve your spot today and let’s paint a world filled with wonder together!
