You don’t need a rainbow of colours to create breathtaking art.
Join professional artist and tutor Fanoulla Georgiou for an inspiring afternoon exploring the striking beauty of monochrome painting. Using only black and white acrylic paint, you’ll discover how contrast, texture and light can transform a blank canvas into a powerful mountain landscape filled with atmosphere and drama.
Designed especially for beginners, this relaxed, step-by-step workshop will guide you through every stage of the creative process. You’ll also experiment with simple collage techniques, adding torn paper and texture to create depth and character within your painting.
“Sometimes the most powerful paintings are created with the simplest palette.”
Whether you’ve never picked up a paintbrush before or you’re looking to develop your artistic confidence, you’ll be encouraged to work at your own pace in a welcoming and supportive environment. By the end of the afternoon, you’ll leave with a finished piece of artwork to be proud of, along with new skills and the confidence to continue your creative journey.
Suitable for beginners.
No previous experience is necessary – just curiosity and a willingness to explore.
All materials are provided. Light afternoon tea included. Come and spend a creative afternoon with like-minded people, slow down, get inspired, and leave with something wonderfully personal.
