Description

The act of making art is therapeutic, it can quiet the mind and allow you to focus on the present. When this happens and you are truly immersed in the moment of creating you can relax and allow the flow and freedom of painting to begin. This workshop is suitable for all abilities even those who have not picked up a paintbrush before. We will use the beautiful surroundings of Hawkwood to inspire us, and have an enjoyable day of painting abstracts At a glance: - A day of calming and relaxing creativity. - Learning to respond to your surroundings to create abstract art. - Painting without the fear of the end result. - Not about creating masterpieces but about finding your way to relax. - Enjoy a delicious freshly cooked two course lunch and two breaks with baked goods and refreshments.
