SUMMER MIX

Join multi-disciplinary artist, Zoë Nash, for this three-day workshop that will visually celebrate the colours, vibrancy, and emotional energy of summer. Predominantly a skills-based mixed media drawing class, we will playfully explore a variety of different mark making techniques. These will include using ink, paint and collage, alongside more traditional drawing using pencil, charcoal and pen. Students will be introduced to a range of simple acrylic paint applications, as well as being encouraged to combine both wet and dry materials.

With a focus on bringing together a number of different methods, you will be gently inspired to take risks and push boundaries using an experimental, open-ended, approach that dips into a mixture of tools, surfaces, formats and sizes. Participants will also pick up tips to enhance their composition and communication skills.

Summer Mix is suitable for both absolute beginners as well as those with some experience who want to invigorate a current practice. By the end of the course each student will have a small body of work ready to take away, and lots of inspiration to continue beyond the classroom and into the year ahead.
