Summer Art Retreat

This is a week long art course spread over 5 mornings, where you will learn techniques to help you draw, plan and create.

Join art teacher and artist Stephanie Wardle in her studio in the heart of the city, where you will be guided through each session, with demonstrations and feedback.

The course will run every morning 10-12 pm, from Monday 18th August until Friday 22nd August and attendance to all sessions is strongly encouraged.

Tea and coffee will be provided in each session.

For the week we will be working towards a silk painting outcome and the syllabus is as follows:

• Monday 18th August Day 1 : Welcome and introduction to drawing from observation
• Tuesday 19th August Day 2 : Introduction to colour theory, working with oil pastels
• Wednesday 20th August Day 3 : Idea development & pattern design techniques
• Thursday 21st August Day 4 : Final design and Gutta
• Friday 22nd August Day 5 : Silk Painting

This course is suitable for beginners and anyone who has had a break from creating or is stuck in a creative rut! Please note that the studio is only accessible via a flight of stairs and so is not accessible for all.
