Studio Art Course - Friday x 6 sessions

Give yourself the chill time every Friday that is just for you! The Studio Art Course, for 6 sessions, will start you using basic drawing media to explore and manipulate materials and understand how to use art as a vehicle for self-expression. The landscape and portraits will be your theme and offer exciting ways to create with certain selected media
Once you work through each media in an activity for your 2 hours each week, you are then confidently going to work through how design elements can be visually supportive for an idea or artwork you have in mind.
This ongoing course will give you an insight into tools and activities to begin confidently in graphite and pencil, watercolour pencils, charcoal and dry pastels. You will investigate visual arts elements such as line, colour, shape and texture using a variety of simple media. You will be shown some creative and easy ways to take these techniques and skills further in exercises designed to get you combining these in a journal space.
Begin exploring and experimenting with elements of design and having hands-on experience with a variety of traditional and non-traditional media within your visual journal space. We will also touch on ideas kept in a digital journal and view apps to also enhance your mindfulness of what a visual journey into art can be!
You will create a hand made journal each session and all materials are included.
6 sessions x 2 hours
Your sessions start on the first Friday after your payment is made. See you up the Studio!

Watercolours Art Workshop shows you how to explore and become confident with water-soluble materials such as pencils, paints and inks. Allowing water to be used to manipulate these materials gives you an opportunity to drip, dribble or spray around a surface. By understanding the boundaries of each media can give you handles to hold onto to achieve more options for its use. Develop some watercolour techniques that could enhance what you might already know or give you a fresh approach to your own style of working with watercolour.
