Join us on this fortnightly online course designed to refine and expand your artistic practice.
You will be working alongside likeminded artists from across the country and from all walks of life. Each artist brings a unique way of working, contributing to a supportive group where lively and informative discussions are both encouraged and valued.
Led by Bob Matthews and Annie Cattrell, the programme offers a balanced approach to making art, with a focus on creating, presenting, discussing and reflecting on your work. Throughout the course, you will be gently but confidently challenged to push the boundaries of your practice, exploring new ideas, techniques and materials.
