About
Taking Howard Hodgkin’s work as inspiration and focusing on colour, texture and composition, The Bowery’s Sandra Togher guides you in a range of painting techniques and ideas based on abstraction.
For those who have no previous painting experience, you will explore and experiment. For those who already paint, the workshop will provide refreshing ideas to energise your work and diversify your style. You will create your own original works using acrylic paint and mixed media.
