Watercolour Painting

This Express Yourself workshop, taught by local artist Michelle Miller, will provide students with a good foundation and understanding of the expressive qualities of watercolour painting. Some of the topics covered will include a focus on light and value; how to maintain vibrancy of colour in a painting as well as the basics of colour mixing; composition and use of hard and soft edges. How to see and look at subject matter from the eyes of an artist will be a focus of this workshop.

Needle Felted Painting

Local artist Lynn Haygarth will be instructing a workshop on Needle Felted Painting!

Start with a prefelted ‘canvas’ and lay pieces of wool roving on top of it. With a barbed needle we will start the dry needle felting process. Adding more layers of coloured roving we will paint a mini landscape that will be suitable for framing.
