Our ‘Inspired By..’ series looks at the work of some influential artists taking inspiration from their unique approaches.

The Impressionists are now some of the world’s most popular and well-known artists. Find out more about the work of these revolutionary painters through a hands-on exploration of their techniques.

COURSE TUTOR: SOPHIE BERGER

Sophie Berger is a practicing fine artist with work in UK and international galleries, she is a regular teacher for the short courses at Plymouth College of Art and Kingbeare Studios as well as Exeter Phoenix. Sophie’s work is greatly affected by colour and atmosphere, both of which change due to weather and seasons, so observation of the environment and surroundings influence her work both directly as well as subconsciously.

Living in a remote village on Dartmoor, Sophie spends her time on the moors or coastline, sketching in charcoal and coloured ink then using these to influence her paintings back in her studio.

Workshop attendees get 10% off all food and hot drinks at the Café Bar.
