Spring Still Life

A collage Paint Print workshop with karen Carter

Tuesday 16 April 2024 – 10am to 1pm – ÂŁ40

This workshop is suitable for adults.

Create a multi-layered mixed media piece of work in this fun experimental workshop – no experience necessary (and you don’t need to be able to draw!)

We will use acrylic paints to create layers of transparent colour, spatters and drips over a collaged base, adding simple stencilled patterns. We will then work over the top of this with drawn (or traced) and painted elements to make lively mixed media images.
 
There will be lots of demos & step-by-step instruction in this fun and informal workshop. 

What to bring?

  • Heavy watercolour paper (approx. 350gsm) or mountboard / back of sketchpad (painted white if you’re using this) or MDF (painted white).   (A4 or bigger)
  • Lightweight patterned & plain papers for collage  – whatever you have – the tutor will also bring some.
