Mexican Portrait Painting

ONE DAY WORKSHOP

In this practical workshop, we will be inspired by the colourful world of traditional Mexican art, creating hand drawn illustrations on paper using pens & pencils, in the distinctive style of Frida Kahlo and the votive paintings that inspired her work.

Bring a portrait photograph of yourself.

Also bring some photos of people, pets or mementos that reflect your life, plus one paragraph from a text or poem you are fond of.

Suitable for all levels, although an ability to focus and work with precision is essential, as the work incorporates much fine detail.

Course Tutor: Sally Pucill MA

Sally has studied traditional forms of art for some time and has specialised in particular painting processes from the southern hemisphere. She has adapted the traditional methods, using more easily accessible materials, and specialist materials will be provided.

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