WHO: Geoff Chilton is a fantastic local artist, and is a new addition to our family of studio holders and freelance tutors! Geoff has an amazing artistic background and knowledge to share with you.

WHAT: In this half day workshop, professional artist Geoff Chilton shows you how to free up your landscape painting using mixed media. This workshop is suitable for all abilities - a great opportunity for beginners & intermediates to grow their confidence and develop skills!

The first part of the session will be to gather material in the form of quick sketches and drawings from the rural landscape around Holme Mill. This will take us around 30 to 40 minutes (bring a sketchbook and pencil, and dress for the weather!)

The main part of the workshop will be about learning to develop your mark-making skills and how to use different abrasive media on top of a base acrylic painting. Learn how to use broad gestural marks to put intensity and emotion into your work.

The workshop is all about a visceral response to the landscape - a continuing series of reactions to what you see with ‘no holds barred’ free expression.

All materials will be provided for the workshop, but if want to bring any of your own favourite paints and brushes, please feel welcome to do so! Similarly, if you have your own sketchbook and favourite pencils and want to work with them, that’s okay too.

Make a bird or bee pendant this Spring!

WHO: Frances will be your tutor for the day, this workshop is perfect for all abilities; absolute beginners, intermediate or advanced- everyone can achieve a great result in this full day workshop.

WHAT: Birds & bees jewellery workshop, using Pebeo porcelain paint

Learn how to make a pendant or a brooch in metal and then add colour to the surface using pebeo porcelain paints.

On this one day course participants will form a pendant and/or a brooch from sheet metal. This will be hand painted using the pebeo porcelain paint. There is the possibility within the one day course to make a pendant and a brooch piece.

You will first cut out your design from brass sheet metal, using a piercing saw, snips and then filing the edges down so they are smooth. Add details such as eyes and beak definition onto the surface using hammer and punch. This would likely be kept to the minimum, but additional details such as legs can be added in wire and soldered to the piece.

Finally you will use the pebeo porcelain 150 paints to add colour to the surface of your design. As these paints need a 24 hr time period to dry before they are baked in an oven, participants will have to leave their pieces with us for firing.

For pendants you will put together a brass effect chain to the length of your choice. And a brooch back will be glued to any brooches before work is returned via post (+ £3pp) or collected from the studio the following Monday onwards.

WHERE: Globe 2, Holme Mills, West Slaithwaite, HD7 6LS
