Its all about lush colour and vibrant pattern!
We are delighted to be working with Artist Laura Smith for this life painting workshop of texture and colour-
Laura will be leading us through gestural painting, using markmaking and layering of paint to create confident compositions. We will be using techniques to build your confidence in drawing with paint, working on the fleshy-ness of the model and how to handle pattern so that both complement each other
We will be working from the model in a Matisse inspired set, with plenty of inspiration to help us channel the vibrancy and energy of Mattise.
With plenty of demonstrations and lots of individual tuition - you can take this class to your own level and really improve your confidence in painting.
A great day of creativity – perfect for beginners and ideal for those wanting to brush up on skills and learn more.
