Mixed Media Flowers with Stitch

This workshop will give participants the chance to create their own mixed media flower design using intuitive and playful painting techniques such as inks and bleach, watercolours and wax resist.  Participants will then have the opportunity to work into their paintings using free machine embroidery, effectively using stitch as a mark making tool to enhance the painting.

No prior experience is necessary. Delny is an experienced teacher and will guide you through the creative process and will respond to individual needs and ideas. This will be a playful workshop. Mixed media is a wonderfully creative way to work – there are no rules – just a willingness to have a go and experiment.

All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the workshop fee.
Please bring along your own sewing machine.

Map-Making for Beginners
COURSE FULL

Create a unique illustrated map of your chosen location in this one day workshop.

We will briefly look at other cartography and the parts of a map, share ideas and then make a rough sketch of the location.  You will include historical and personal details and perhaps folklore which will help instill a sense of place, and record your ideas and feelings.

You will improve your drawing and learn about cartographic icons, and discover the Turkish map fold!

Finally you will assemble your map as a final image which you can also choose to get scanned and printed at a later date.

This workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with drawing experience.

All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the workshop fee. You will just need to bring along an idea of the area you want to map and any reference materials to refer to.

Travel Sketchbooks

Join wildlife and travel artist Shelly as she shows you how to capture landscape and wildlife subjects inspired by worldwide destinations. Using her own travel sketchbooks and reference images for guidance Shelly will help you understand the approaches to capturing sketchbook
records of your own travels and how to develop a lively and fluid visual travel journal.

Through the use of pencil, pen and vibrantly coloured washes Shelly will unpick some of the compositional techniques she uses when working en plein air. You can bring your own images with you to work from on the day if you want to, but there will be lots of inspiration in the room to use. You will have an enjoyable day and take home lots of tips and ideas for developing your own sketchbook and travel drawing techniques.

This workshop is suitable for beginners as well as more experienced artists looking to play for the day.

A light lunch and refreshments are provided, but you will need to bring your own paints and sketchbook.

Monoprint and Watercolour

Create vibrant and exciting images based on a still life subject using a combination of monoprinting and watercolour in this one day workshop.

By separating the line (monoprinting) and colour (watercolour) elements of the work, each becomes freer and more lively, often producing unexpectedly satisfying results.

Demonstrations and help from the tutor mean everyone can succeed with this technique, and it can be especially rewarding for beginners, and those who want to try a different approach from conventional painting. No matter what your skill level, you will be delighted by your finished
art works.

Suitable for complete beginners and more experienced artists and printmakers.

All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the workshop fee.
