Information
If you are interested in trying a new art class, this free taster session is for you. In this class, we discover different drawing and painting techniques by looking at and practically responding to work already achieved by other artists.
Sabine will bring choices for painting techniques (working with acrylics/oils or watercolours) and drawing techniques to the learner group that fall into particular topics like ‘landscape & buildings’, ‘animal silhouettes & colour background textures’, ‘abstracts & flowers’
Sabine gives plenty of demonstrations in class.
No matter if we use watercolour, oils or acrylic paints, pencils or fine liners, each themed block allows learners to explore different aspects of using different mediums and, in the case of painting, how to layer colour to create the illusion of three-dimensionality.

May 23
June 6,13,20,27
July 4, 11
Learners will need to have an internet connection with Google Chrome (our online meeting format, Google Classroom is based on Google Chrome) Sabine will contact you prior to class.
