About this Event
The event will be held in the larger room at Tea By The Lock (The Ballroom). Those who come to the workshop will be welcome to buy refreshements at the lovely plant-based tearoom (not included in ticket price).
The workshop is run by a talented local artist who is a member of the Association of Animal Artists and has exhibited her wildlife art in their annual exhibition.
This will be a guided painting session, in which I will provide information about the materials and technique, help you choose colours and mix them, and provide deminstrations. You will be free to make changes to the design if you wish, for example some people have changed the background or made the robin look like a fluffier chick!
All materials will be provided. There will be the option to draw your own robin before painting if you are more experienced, or if you prefer, there will be ready-prepared options so you don't need to worry about drawing and can get straight on with painting.
If you are worried about getting messy (some of the pens are permanent and there will be a lot of splishing, splatting and splottering), you may wish to bring an apron and gloves, and it is worth remembering your glasses if you wear them.
Tea By The Lock is a wonderful venue, and the location itself offers a relaxed atmosphere, is dog-friendly, has a plant-based menu, and is close to both a bus stop and the lock carpark. It is past the caravan park, down the track through the gate, and to the right, by the Lock.
