Come and join me for 2 hours at the lovely Made at Nest in Frome and create 6 abstract paintings to take home. I'll provide all the materials and no experience is needed, just a desire to paint and create.

This 2 hour workshop will involve practical sessions which will support you in creating 6 abstract paintings on paper. We will focus on creating these in an intuitive way using texture and mark making whilst finding out which colours you are drawn to. We will use brushes and palette knives with acrylic paint, and we will try using paint directly from the tube as well as paint mixed with water. We will also try using a medium added to the paint to add yet more texture! These techniques are the ones I use to create my own art and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do. I will provide refreshments during the workshop and my homemade lemon drizzle cake.

Why not bring a friend or family member and share the experience? Alternatively, if you come alone, you will get to meet another likeminded person and I always love how well everyone gets along.

You don't need any experience, in fact most people come who haven't painted since school or for a very long time. My painting workshop will give you an opportunity to try a new skill or a new way of painting and help you find your creative happy place, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

No previous painting experience needed - even if you haven’t painted since school
