This course is designed to lead you through a series of mini- workshops to encourage you to develop your style and approach to creating imagery.
You will create a series of images, working with a range of media and be introduced to different techniques that will broaden your skills base.
The course will look at starting points for work, design elements and layout, ways of working i.e., direct (drawing and painting etc) vs. elemental (building images with a series of pieces), exploring materials, and scale.
If you have a project or idea that you would like to develop you can bring this with you and work though the workshops with that. If not, there are design briefs for each mini workshop that will give you a starting point to take in whichever direction you choose.
This course is suitable for beginners-intermeadate levels.
Holly has over 22 years experience leading creative workshops. She has a BA Hons in Creative Arts, A Diploma in Graphic Illustration and many years working as an artist, painting murals in Europe and the USA.
