Tutor  Peter Clayton

We have a limited number of places on this Two Part Expression course, which comprises The Keys To Expression (Saturday 8th June, 10am - 1pm) and Colour and Expression (Sunday 9th June, 10am - 4pm.)

The Keys To Expression

Spend time with Peter Clayton looking at artists throughout history and the ways they have demonstrated the elements that make their work expressive - colour, contrast, composition and material. Learn to analyse others' work and critique your own practice. Two demonstrations to show how to make a picture look quiet or dramatic.

Colour and Expression

This course is a great practical introduction to colour theory and terminology. You will mix various palettes - strong and muted - making use of transparency and opacity. You will make pictures using basic printmaking materials which explore different moods - e.g. quiet, dramatic, fresh, anxious. A fantastic grounding in a fundamental skill with a very experienced and knowledgeable tutor.
