2 Day Weekend Mixed Media Workshop - with Melanie Davis
Postponed – We are hoping we may be able to now run this later in the year. Will advise new dates.
Cost – $130.00 members/$150.00 non members
This workshop is to held at Short Street Studio between 10.00am – 4.00pm each day.
In this two day workshop we will be using mixed media to deconstruct traditional approaches to landscape painting. There will be a focus on how to project the feeling of a place as opposed to a direct photographic representation. The class will include exercises to loosen up the way that we draw and paint, before working towards a final piece. Please feel free to bring sketches and photos to work from as well as any extra materials that you may wish to experiment with.
Places are limited so be quick. Please enquire about availability before making payment which then secures your place in this exciting workshop.
For all enquires please email ashsocart@gmail.com or Phone Roz Ledingham on 021 718 633

Lynda ran a very successful beginner’s water colour course in 2021 receiving some great feedback from attendees.
This is a follow on from the beginners watercolour workshop recently held and is for beginner/intermediate level painters.
We will explore painting snow capped mountains, water, reflections and trees, keeping things as simple and loose as
possible
