Exploring Trees- 2 day workshop £170
This two day workshop will give us lots of time to explore creating trees in different ways. We will begin using charcoal and charcoal pencils to explore the wonderful textures. This will be followed by using full colour in another piece to really bring everything to life with detail and movement recreated using pastels and pastel pencils.
Friday 25th November- 4 places left
Pastels for beginners or refresher class.
Learn or refresh yourself on all the pastel basics. We will not only explore a variety of paper and the effects you can create, we will also look at controlling colours and using colour theory as you work. A fun day producing a number of small pieces of artwork using the tricks and tools at the trade.

Where to stay
There are many lovely places to stay in beautiful Buxton...but you will be guaranteed a very warm welcome at my friend's newly renovated and luxurious B&B.
2 night stay minimum due to Covid deep cleaning between guests- but you'll find plenty to see and do in the heart of the Peak District..
