Master Painter Workshops
Are you looking for a different kind of Hens or Bucks evening, Special Occasion, Birthday Party or gift idea? Why not get a group together and have me host an Art Workshop!
A really enjoyable one is the Master Painter Guided Painting Acrylic Workshop. Everyone paints and takes home their own take on Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso or another - no pressure - gentle guidance - it's your evening.
Not a class or tuition, these workshops are aimed at a free form exploration of an artist and one of their works and exploration of a painting medium.
It's not just a 'student/teacher' thing - simply surround yourself with food, drink, paint and good company.
A wide variety of levels available from level 1 for beginners, level 2 for intermediate to level 3 for extension........
BYO refreshments or tea and coffee available, quality nibbles provided and music of choice to accompany you, plus all materials (canvas, brushes and paints) are provided and you take your painting home.
A different way to spend a relaxed, fun evening.
......Did you know Matisse, Picasso and Van Gogh perfected their craft by copying the works of others?
