Workshops
I have several years experience in running creative art workshops for adults, specialising in monoprinting, eco-dyeing on paper and bookmaking.
My workshops run from 2 hours up to 2 days, and all levels of experience can be catered for.
I am particularly interested in giving a fresh creative experience with no pressure to produce a masterpiece, but just to have fun exploring ink, paper, and plant materials. You don't need to be able to draw or paint, just have an open mind and be ready to go out of your comfort zone and find your creative self. You will always take home something....it may be a finished work, the starting point for a new mixed media work, or just renewed enthusiasm and inspiration.
My 2013 workshops (so far) are below. To be kept informed of upcoming workshops (and other interesting events like exhibitions etc), please join my mailing list.
