Step into a world of luminous colour and delicate detail. Join us at the Tanks Art Workshops to create a sparkling, jewel-like piece of botaAbout this Event
Join local artists Sue Schreiber and Glenis Lawler for a relaxing and immersive morning of mixed-media creativity in Tank 4. In this hands-on workshop, you will learn how to combine wet and dry mediums to create a stunning botanical masterpiece that beautifully catches the light.
What We Will Cover:
- Iridescent Backgrounds: We will begin by creating a patterned background using iridescent watercolours, capturing a metallic, pearlescent glow that shifts as it catches the light.
- Blooming Botanicals: Once your shimmering base is set, you will use fine-liner pens to "bloom" a flower directly over the top.
- Rhythmic Textures: We will move beyond simple outlines, focusing on a variety of intricate markings and rhythmic patterns—such as stippling, hatching, and flowing scrolls—to give your botanical subject a rich, decorative texture.
The final result is a beautiful, jewel-like piece of art that sparkles from every angle! This class is designed to be highly supportive and is perfect for both beginners learning fundamental drawing mechanics and experienced artists looking to experiment with new, luminous textures.
What’s Included:
- Step-by-step guidance in a supportive, small-group environment.
- All high-quality materials, including iridescent watercolours, fine-liner pens, and premium art paper.
