Acrylic Art - Large Loose Florals - Large Canvas Painting - Blended Monkey

Description

This full-day group workshop with our guest artist, Sarah Heather, is suitable for all skill levels. Join Sarah for a fun and relaxed "large loose floral workshop" where we'll embrace our creativity and let go of perfection together using big canvases (minimum 60 x 60 cm) and intuitive painting techniques. Whether you're an experienced artist wanting to loosen up or someone who's just starting out, this workshop is designed for everyone, even if you lack confidence with paint and bigger canvases, or just don't know where to start - I can help with that! We'll explore splatter, drips, mark making, bold expressive shapes, and vibrant colours on canvas. Working on easels, tables or the grass, whatever feels right for that moment. No pressure to create a finished painting, but I can help guide you to consider composition and work towards an end or just enjoy pure abstract joy and creativity! Come as you are, and let's create something uplifting together in a supportive and inspiring environment in the Blended Monkey gardens. This FULL DAY PAINTING WORKSHOP will be held in the peaceful setting of our Blended Monkey Studios & gardens on the Cambridgeshire/Norfolk border. Numbers are limited to ensure you get plenty of 1-2-1 tuition. This painting art experience is suitable for 16+.
