This practical studio-based course delves into expressionism to explore the emotive and sensual qualities of colour, materials and mark making. Taking landscape as our subject, we will look at ways of working with different media to bring intensity or lightness, mood and meaning to our images. Experiment with sumptuous combinations of acrylic inks, watercolour and soft pastels. This course is not suitable for beginners but for artists with some previous painting experience who want to develop a more personal painterly approach.
