Walking through Colour

The garden will be our inspiration for exploring colour combinations from gentle and harmonious pinks to flamboyantly discordant yellow and purples. Working in pastel or watercolour to create our own compositions we will reference works by the impressionists, expressionists including Emil Nolde and artists working in a more abstract way.

Reference for inspiration will be supplied or bring your own.

Please bring your own materials and equipment and scroll down for further information.
