New this season, please join me for a History of Art introduction about JMW Turner before trying your hand at watercolour skies in your own hand! The perfect mix of information, inspiration and creativity I hope these new sessions will be a cultural and creative top up for art lovers.
4 - 6pm
The Green Room at The Painswick Centre
Behind his the formal oil painting commissions and pieces that hung on the walls of the grand Royal Academy, Turner filled hundreds of sketchbooks with watercolour studies and drawings. He carefully curated and treasured them throughout his life, using them as reference in his artworks.
As a watercolour painter myself, with a loose and impressionistic style, I am delighted to guide you in how to create landscape and skyscape impressions yourself. Free up your technique, use larger brushes, lots of water and enjoy the alchemy of colour mixing and the results on paper.
It is said that Rothko was inspired in his Colour Field paintings by Turner and we will compare their artworks.
Over two hours in The Green Room at The Painswick Centre, I will start with a 15-20 minute powerpoint and discussion about Turner and his techniques, and working from print-outs as inspiration, we will create our own.
A brief materials list will be emailed to you upon booking.
