My COLOUR SONGS Workshop

Last weekend I led a 3 hr Colour Song abstract art workshop and I thought you'd enjoy hearing about what we got up to.

We started with a couple of warm up exercises – drawing to music and then thinking in colours. I was thrilled that everyone threw themselves straight into the activities, daring to try something different, trusting me to focus on the process over results.

I then set about taking the group through the techniques I used to create this painting called 'Piece of Peace', step by step, layer upon layer upon layer.

Everyone went home with their own beautiful handcrafted painting!

"This is such fun!"

In their own words

I've learnt to be adventurous with colour and style, just to 'go for it'.
My favourite part was learning the various stages, each one revealed an additional 'layer' to the work.
I've learnt to experiment and have fun with different ideas, I loved all of it!

Next Workshop

If you would love to spend time playing with paint with me and learning my techniques, my next workshop is on 23 March, there are still a couple of places left - follow this link here.
I can currently only do a couple of these per year, so I will soon be releasing dates for my 2020 workshops - join my mailing list to hear my latest news.
