10 Week Courses: Adult Visual Arts

Fully tutored with all materials and refreshments provided.

New: Print with Lino and Stencil

Tuesday’s 10-12 (5 week course) Starts 25/02/2025

This new course concentrates on the exploration of experimental printmaking techniques and stencil work. You will delve into the origins of the "wall hanging," drawing inspiration from medieval tapestries, with an emphasis on design elements such as line and pattern. These techniques are ideally suited to printmaking and will allow you to explore how artisans create visual narratives through motifs and patterns.

The work will be generated through hands-on exploration, with the workshop being fast-paced and filled with practical demonstrations and visual resources to inspire you. You will learn how to design effective motifs and create dynamic patterns, while developing a solid understanding of composition through creative play and experimentation. All of this work will culminate in the creation of a decorative wall hanging.

By the end of the workshop, you will leave feeling inspired and excited to continue your creative journey. This course is suitable for both beginners and more advanced artists. All materials for the course will be provided, but it is recommended that you bring your personal sketchbook for note-taking and collecting examples.

The Painting Course

Tuesdays 1-3pm

This course is designed for both beginners and experienced artists who want to refine their skills. Whether you're new to painting or have an established practice, you can bring along your own work to receive personalised tutorials and constructive feedback while working alongside other creative individuals in a collaborative and inspiring environment.

We will primarily be working in acrylics, but if you prefer another medium, feel free to bring it along. The course will cover a variety of painting techniques—from colour mixing and mark making to texture and composition. With step-by-step guidance and hands-on practice, you’ll develop both your technical ability and your own original work, helping you grow as an artist no matter where you’re starting from.
