This workshop is part of the Mindful on the Moor Art and Wellbeing Festival. Advanced booking recommended.
Join Artist James McGairy for a fun and inspiring introduction to acrylic painting. In this hands-on session, you'll explore the basics of colour mixing, brush techniques, and paint application. Using high-quality materials provided for you, you'll create your own landscape painting—or follow your own creative path if you prefer. Acrylic paint’s quick-drying and flexible nature makes it the perfect medium for experimentation and layering, so there's plenty of room to play and explore. Whether you're a complete beginner or just looking to loosen up creatively, you'll leave with new skills, fresh inspiration, and a finished painting to take home.
