5 Week Course

Take time to connect with your artistic ideas and imagination. This course is for anyone who needs a spark to re-connect with their creative selves.

You will be guided through hands on activities and techniques to explore your ideas using materials that include;

• oil and soft pastels
• acrylic paint
• ink
• collage
• construction with recycled materials
• textiles

We will also be looking at the work of theorists such as Livio Abramo (Brazil), Herbert Read (UK) Olga Blinder (Paraguay) and Cira Moscarda(Paraguay) who examine ways in which we define creativity and how artists channel theirs.

During the final week of the course we will be creating a display of the work produced, sharing experiences and producing constructive reviews of each other’s work.

Basic materials will be provided, but it will be useful for you to bring along a sketchbook to make notes and to record ideas.
