Painting Project - A Still Life painting in monochromatic, mixed media
Foundation Deep Dive - Compositional Arrangement and Design
Without the allure of colour, you will immerse yourself in the power of line, shape, value, pattern, contrast and more as you design, arrange, collage, stencil, draw, paint etc.
Images in the gallery show examples of prompts, inspirations etc, however, each individual participant will create their own unique design as they discover more about the elements and principles of design and a wealth of collected and self-made materials.
Every step is attentively facilitated, touching on all foundational subjects such as compositional arrangement, drawing, use of light and shade & Notans & diverse mixed media techniques.
For this Saturday Intensive full-day workshop, we will have a special focus, and the subject of 'Composition & Design', and our Online Module will be provided as a bonus, allowing participants to continue their development of composition and design at home, or in a regular group.
A 40x50 cm canvas board is provided. Upgrades to stretched deep canvas and even custom-ordered floating frames are available on the day.
