Two day painting workshop in West Pembrokeshire with Kate Freeman

Description

10am - 5pm, two consecutive days An opportunity to really get involved, this two day workshop incorporates all of the themes explored in the half day and one day classes ( please refer to previous listings for details ). We begin each day with some 'warm-up' drawing and mark making exercises, before launching in to Colour Mixing, Experimental Techniques, Collage and Composition. Each subject will be clearly explained, and Kate will demonstrate techniques, and provide assistance or advice as required! All of the skills aquired during these sessions are applicable to students' own work, whether Abstract or more 'traditional' subject matter. We will be investigating the 'nuts and bolts' of making paintings, not "painting pictures"! We use a variety of tools to apply paint, and there are plenty of other media available to experiment with, including inks, graphite, pens and oil pastels. Many of the exercises are great block busters for those days when you want to paint, but don't know where to start . Experienced painters who wish to "get out of a rut" will also benefit. Spending two days dedicated to art making enables students to develop particular aspects of the painting process that are relevant to their own personal practice. Each day culminates in a wine o'clock seminar discussion of the work produced.

What's included in the price?

All painting materials and papers are included, and each student will receive an A4 sketchbook, to be filled with visual notes and ideas as we go along. Great coffee, tea and home made cake for breaks... Delicious vegetarian lunch... and a glass of wine at the end of the day! I have a large collection of Artist monographs and other art books which students are welcome to browse, and refer to during sessions.
