Mixed Media, Flowers & Foliage

This will be a dynamic and exciting day, using a range of different painting and drawing materials to create a series of studies inspired by flowers & foliage. The morning will be spent experimenting and working on mixed media techniques, layering and building up images. The afternoon will be spent focusing on a sustained piece (or further studies if you prefer).

There will be a range of flowers and foliage to inspire us throughout the day, so we can work from observation and use this as a starting point, but there will also be plenty of scope for your own creativity and exploration. It will also be a lot of fun!

There will be plenty of choice and flexibility and Liz will guide you through the different approaches that will suit you best.

Course level : all levels welcome
