If the weather is fine we will have the opportunity to paint in the woodland and grounds of Bradgate Manor where the Bluebells will be looking glorious. Previous workshops The workshops held so far have been great fun and participants learnt special techniques that enabled them to create some excellent paintings in water colours, mixed media and acrylics. The workshops were enjoyed by all the participants and it was good to see how complete beginners progressed during the day and the more experienced artists picked up tips that helped them to improve their techniques. Group bookings If you and your friends wish to book a workshop - media of your own choice then please do get in touch. Gift vouchers are available for all courses.
