Ever thought that you would like to make a painting but didn’t know what to paint or how to start?
Artist Nicola Dickson will show you how to use watercolour paints to create a still life painting, ‘making do’ with everyday domestic objects. Working from a tableau of items similar to those of Mugga Mugga, participants will be shown ways of making an interesting composition for a painting. Technical demonstrations will show participants how to transform the arrangement of objects into an image that can suggest a mood or story.
Come along and discover how everyday objects and watercolour paint can help you tell a beautiful visual story.
