Participants will be exposed to a range of art making techniques using ink, paint and collage as we explore line, shape, texture, composition and the aesthetics of mark making from a contemporary viewpoint.

‘Experimental Landscapes’  will be the starting position as we explore, experiment and loosen up our style as we learn to develop an idea. We will investigate the possibilities ‘working on paper’ has to offer. At the end of this workshop all participants will have complete artworks ready to frame!

Participants will walk away from this workshop feeling invigorated and bursting with new ideas as we explore materials, techniques and consolidate and refine our finished artworks.
