Bold Abstract Flower Workshop

 

I’m holding a one day workshop at Norfolk Creative Arts in Grimston, in west Norfolk, on Saturday 1st July.

Enjoy a day to loosen up and explore abstract florals. The workshop will teach you how to paint abstract flowers start-to-finish. To begin you will explore flower drawing using contour lines and compose some thumbnail sketches. Then you will discover exciting colour schemes using mixed media to create your bold expressive floral painting. Develop your painting skills and learn different techniques with confidence and a lot of fun!

10am – 4pm The workshop includes a 2 course lunch. For more information or to book a place contact Hans on the link below.
