Service Description

This workshop presents a perfect opportunity for those who want to choose their own subjects and develop their work further, focusing on individual interests. Bring your favourite materials or experiment with the ones you rarely use, and give yourself to a material/process-led exploration. We will explore different methods of applying paints and mediums. You will be encouraged to try various tools other than your favourite brush to understand what impact tools, as much as paints, can have on your work. Get ready to surprise yourself by painting intuitively and plan a highly tailored painting session according to your interests and needs. By the end of the day, you will have built up your confidence and see your painting practice reaching new levels! Saturday​, 7 June 10:30am - 4:30pm We will break for 45 minutes to 1 hour for lunch. We are located five minutes walk from Crystal Palace Triangle, a foodie basin with a plethora of cafes and restaurants to choose from. ​ Or, you can bring your lunch and relax at our kitchen table. Coffee, tea and biscuits will be provided throughout the day. Group size: 5 students maximum. Having five students maximum on each workshop guarantees you will receive personalised tuition and feedback tailored to your needs and level. No generic advice and no getting lost in a crowded class. We are all about creating a supportive, relaxed atmosphere. You will work in an artist’s studio, a professional studio environment. You can choose to work on the easel, on the wall, or sitting down with a board. As a bonus, we are on the hill, so you can also enjoy the breath-taking panoramic view of London. Regardless of the particular theme, all our Saturday workshops will help you: - build your technical confidence - move beyond any creative or technical rut you may have found yourself in - sharpen your understanding of your strengths and your way of working - provide a closer look at composition and colour, how to arrive at a compelling painting - develop and explore your creativity and gain momentum - answer your particular questions regarding paints, mediums, and/or professional development The Saturday workshops are open to all levels, from practising professional artists to complete beginners. They are an excellent way to learn, remember, and inspire one another in a supportive atmosphere. You might be surprised by what can only be learned and gained by working in a diverse skill-level class.
