In Simply Slow we are going to engage with the sensory experience of making art and take notice of the little details like how your paint pools or the sensation of your tools scraping across the page. Using simple shapes, a limited palette and delicate patterns we'll create an abstract landscape style piece.

In Stepping Stones, we are going to use gathered natural items (e.g. sticks, stones, pods) to create an abstract painting. You will discover tips and tricks for choosing colours, generating compositional ideas and layering mixed media supplies. This is a relaxing and fun class suitable for anyone that wants to explore abstract art.
