Dynamic Figure with Carrie Stanley and Charlotte Houlihan

About

Both are dynamic and expressive artists who explore figuration through a wide variety of media using  experimental processes. Focusing on the figure and using an array of exotic plants and leaves as props this workshop promises to be fun and immersive, colourful and brave.

You will use mixed media and different substrates over the course of the weekend to explore multi angled layered poses, drawings built up through sheets of transparencies, collaged compositions and more. There will be a live model to draw from during these sessions.

All welcome; no experience necessary; age 16+ (under 18s should attend with an adult). Max group size: 12.
