St George’s Hall, Bewdley, Worcestershire, DY12 2EQ

Water and sky

In these workshops we shall be putting sky and sea, or water, together in a single image. The tricky part is making it a complete picture with the light from the sky illuminating the sea or body of water. Great colour combinations can be used to show weather and atmospheric conditions and give drama to your landscapes.

Skies

Skies are an important part of landscape paintings, setting the tone of the scene as a whole and often representing the dominant feature of the composition. They create the light and atmosphere in all media and can easily ruin a picture or look separate to the scene. In these workshops we shall learn about more than just clouds and blue sky by studying the masters of skies throughout Art History and how to portray dramatic weather and light.

Wed 5th June 6.30 – 9pm

Thursday 6th June 10.30am – 3pm

Friday 7th June 10.30am – 3pm

Sea

The continuing movement and rhythm of the sea has always been a huge challenge to artists – not to mention the waves! We will have an amazing time capturing the energy, power and majesty of the sea and waves in paint – could get messy! (see Maggie Hambling!).

Wed 12th June 6.30-9.30pm

Over to you

Now its your turn to design and create your own sea and sky artwork in the medium of your choice – oils, watercolour, acrylics or even printmaking. Using what we have learnt the emphasis will be on light and dramatic atmosphere that landscapes can provide. Or you may choose to finish artworks with final flourishes of drama!

Over to you and 3D figures

These workshops are for you to choose and create your own artwork based on the figure using techniques that you have learnt during this month– it can be a painting, drawing, lino or tetra pac print or even a 3D figure in papier mache. It’s up to you!
