Sketchpad Transformations Part 1 is a new exciting 6 week course (3hrs each Wednesday) designed to inspire your creativity, develop ideas and open your mind to new artistic approaches.

It will be followed by Part 2 ( 6 wks) in the second part of the term when we we will continue to develop new topics.

As the course progresses we will transform a bland and empty sketchpad into a rich and creative journal through drawing and painting which will offer a range of possibilities ripe for development.

Each week we will build a new page and you will be introduced to a different media, technique or subject touching upon the work of artists who have worked on similar themes.

£160 for 6 week course

Be inspired by the colder months to work with a limited palette to create winter river and garden paintings. Use watercolour, gouache or pastel to paint icy riverbanks and frosted trees and plants spangled with bright berries. Take in the difference of reflections seen in water and ice and the effects of “broken” water.

Bring your own paints, paper and equipment. For gouache and pastel, coloured papers would be a good choice, preferable 300gsm for gouache. Equipment to include drawing board and a block of wood or table easel, water pots, clips or paper tape to attach paper, sketchbook for composition sketches. Reference will be supplied or bring your own and some paper will be available at cost from the tutor.
