Make An Impressionist Still Life Painting

Start by responding to a “surprise” still life arrangement revealed at the beginning of the session, encouraging spontaneous reactions rather than over-planning.

Build your painting through loose shapes, expressive brushwork, and close observation of colour and light, letting the scene emerge as you work.

Work in a relaxed, supportive environment, share ideas with the group, and experiment with how you see and interpret form.

You’ll leave with a finished Impressionist-inspired still life painting and new confidence in expressive painting.

Basic materials provided. Food and drink is also available for purchase throughout the session from our cafés.

This workshop is suitable for ages 16+.
