The workshop will be delivered by Julia, using mixed media. The workshop participants will each be given a sheet of watercolour paper and a drawing board. Julia will give a demonstration of creating a layered painting in acrylic, crayons, charcoal and collage, based on a series of landscape photographs. Each participant will be asked to select an image in order to choose the dominant/prevailing or underlying colour. Then a first layer of paint mixed with a medium will be applied and drawn through with scrapers and shapers. Further structure to the form will be added by using crayon, charcoal and collage, as well as by applying further layers of transparent and opaque layers of paint.
Participants will be encouraged to intuitively respond to the materials, and to experience how paintings can be built up in stages or layers.
Booking is essential as there are only 15 places available at the workshop, with a fee of £15 per person, payable in advance.
