On Sunday 18th February from 12-4pm I will be opening my studio to guests to come and learn about contemporary painting.
We will start with a Powerpoint presentation on Contemporary painting and look at some of the important artists working in the late 19th century and early 20th century that had a major influence on how we see things as artists today.
Then after some tea and cake we will move into the studio and begin our Contemporary painting experience. Learn how using your own personal experiences, feelings, emotions, politics, interests etc can be the starting point of a journey on canvas. Experimenting with oil paint and using a variety of tools, the work can develop into a painting that has layers and veils; a painting that is inside your imagination where anything can happen.

A unique experience resulting in a unique painting.

All materials are provided, so you don’t need to go to the art shop and spend a fortune.
