About this event
Join professional artist Laura Jayne Fisk at Gainsborough Community Library and learn how to create your very own abstract nature canvas! This is part of O Projeto Página em Branco which offers high-quality creative workshops for 10-16 year olds during the school holidays.
Workshops take place from 9.45AM to 3.30PM and include lunch, drinks and snacks! Book this workshop on Eequ.
Let’s create a piece of art full of texture, shape, pattern and life, that’s fun and unique to you. You will have the opportunity to explore a variety of paint techniques using acrylics and apply these to your very own abstract floral, field or forest canvas.
Think layers of your favourite colours, flowers, trees, trunks and grasses set on the back drop of your choice, dark and moody, bright and breezy, the choice is yours. Together we will create something very special and ultimately something you’re really proud of.
