Cornish Seascapes
« Back to Painting Workshops
With blue seas and golden sands as your muse and Cornwall’s incredible artists as your inspiration, this workshop will awaken your wild side and revive your senses.
The Process
It’s all about having fun with colour, building confidence with paint and letting go until you are completely and utterly absorbed in the moment and enjoying the freedom of filling the canvas. You’ll learn about textures and light, layering and composition, and whether you’ve never picked up a paint brush before or are familiar at the easel, Susie will elicit a vibrancy to your brush strokes that you never knew existed.
The Workshop
You’ll begin by capturing the work of a chosen Cornish seascape artist, injecting it with your own personality and artistic style. Comfortable with a paint brush and with the basic techniques under your belt, you’ll then move onto choosing your own Cornish seascape artist to draw inspiration from. There will be masses of pictures to spark your interest and Susie’s encouraging expertise to guide you so you’ll leave with a feeling of enormous pride and a painting that you’ll be astonished by.

- Welcome and workshop introduction
