Come and join us in the Orangery for a morning of relaxing creativity and create a colourful alcohol inks flower painting to take home with you.
Over 3 hours, this workshop will take you step by step through Millie Moth’s splashy alcohol inks technique. You’ll learn how to "paint" a colourful background - which is actually a combination of drawing, splashing, blowing and painting using a brush pen nib - then you’ll be guided as you draw your flower over it.
It's a lovely technique and easy for both beginners to work with, and for intermediate/advanced artists to enjoy exploring their own creativity. Previous participants have said how relaxing they found the class and really enjoyed working with these colours and materials.
During this workshop, you'll be working on an A5 piece of Yupo paper and using alcohol based ink pens and 91% isopropyl alcohol. Please note - you'll be working closely with neat alcohol and also blowing through a straw so please be aware of this if you sometimes feel light headed.
What’s included:
All materials will be provided and you will take your own lovely painting away to display at home.
A 20% off voucher for Quackers is included if you wish to stay and enjoy lunch afterwards.
The ticket price also includes all-day garden access so you can make a day of it and take a stroll around the gardens in the afternoon (gardens close at 4pm).
