Course Description:
Indulge in a relaxing and creative day of painting where you will explore different mixed media painting methods and turn it into a series of expressive paintings. This class will guide you step by step through colour mixing, surface preparation, composition, layering, mark making and final details. By the end of the day class you will come away with a set of two paintings. There will be no expectations or pressure, just lots of support and enjoyment. This class will also focus on letting go of stress which can be achieved through painting.
A fun filled day allowing you to learn something new and giving you the chance to relax. Whether you’re brand new to the art form or have dabbles in it before, this class is designed to guide and support you every step of the way.
If you have taken part in any of Christina’s other classes at Nature in Art such as ‘Find the Joy in Painting by Creating Abstracts’, this will be a perfect follow on as by the end of the session you will walk away with a final set of paintings.
