Still Life Painting: Colour, Collage & Acrylic with Emma Sherry

Saturday 8th April (10am - 4pm)

£75.00

A one day workshop using collage, acrylic and water-soluble pencils to create still-life with energy and movement.

This workshop is intended to help loosen your drawing and painting style using various techniques. The process will be messy, drippy, splatty and hopefully lots of fun to create some colourful, relaxed paintings.

We will use a mix of collage and acrylic paint working into them with crayons and pencils. We will focus on painting fruit – the still-life will be provided, however if you do have something specific you would like to paint you are welcome to bring it with you.

You will leave the workshop with a number of loose paintings and at least one finished piece.
