Workshop Title: Travels with my Paintbrush: Painting and Mixed Media

Tutor: Catherine Parker

Workshop Summary: Travel with your paintbrush, exploring and experimenting across the vast terrain of acrylic painting and mixed media. Participants have the opportunity to move beyond the conventional and explore an exciting range of processes and materials, from painting, drawing and simple printmaking to found objects. Canvas, paper, wood, plastic, collage, ink, pastel and fineliners are just some of the materials we will be experimenting with to create a contemporary and eclectic range of 2D and 3D artworks. This workshop is largely explorative in nature yet allows for conceptual development, with participants taking home a variety of skills and processes. This is suitable for those who wish to experiment, explore and take risks.
