The workshop programme is updated regularly, often due to high demand and
special requests. So if
there is anything you would particularly like to see arranged, then please let
us know.
|
 | The world of rocks: the what, where and why |
| The rocky world for artists – what you can get terribly wrong! |
| Trees - simplified |
| Textures – methods and ideas |
| Work in the woods – getting down to nature |
| Collage – more than you think! |
| Working with a variety of media |
| Colour and form – ideas and examples |
The programme will be left fairly flexible to allow for different
preferences of media and subject to be worked on. After the initial introduction
and the following demonstrations and ideas session, sketches and
ideas can then be worked on in a variety of styles and media. Artists will be
sent a list of suggested materials – but essentially they will probably want
to bring and work in their ‘preferred’ media. However, we will have a
variety of other materials that can be experimented with.
To enrol: please send full payment of £25 payable to
‘Dr J. Eyers’ to 13 Pusey Way, Lane End, High Wycombe, Bucks, HP14 3LG with

hall location and a list of what to bring will be sent to you by return.

Whether you are interested in improving your landscape painting or want inspiration from some amazing insights into rocks and minerals, this is a very different and interesting course. It is suitable for beginners to experienced artists, and is suitable for all styles from the literal to the abstract.
During the day we will:
| look at rocks close up and under the microscope |
| look at what makes rock textures and how we can capture this |
| look at how rocks make landscape |
| look at (through slides) the good, the bad and the downright impossible landscapes from the art world! |

| look at some dramatic landscapes of the world for pure inspiration! |
The day will be led by professional geologist/artist Jill Eyers. Please contact us for further details or use the booking form to reserve your place.
