Testimonial

Jane

Katrina is a fabulous teacher. She is helpful, patient, knowledgeable and explains things in a way that is easy to understand. The workshops have a warm, friendly atmosphere, and it is an enjoyable way to spend the day. I started the workshop as a beginner, but by the end of the day I came away with a piece of work which I have been proud of.

Most of the workshops have a similar format for the day unless specified.

10.00am start: Introduction to the workshop theme and short demonstration as well as examples of artworks to inspire. Choose from images and resources available. All materials, tools are provided. You will begin your project supported and guided by Katrina.

11.00am: Coffee & biscuits.

12.30pm: Lunch. Bring your own packed lunch or book a local pub.

1.30pm: Afternoon session commences.

3.00pm: Afternoon tea & cake.

4.00pm: End of the day.

Some of the workshops are very intensive and can be a lot to expect to complete your artwork in one day therefore if you need a little extra time you may continue and/or you will be supplied with the materials to complete at home. Katrina is always happy to support you remotely on your chosen method of communication.

(Conditions may apply depending on workshop).

FORMAT OF DAY WORKSHOPS

COLLOGRAPH MAKING & PRINTING

Using flowers & leaves or a combination of recycled materials you will make a collograph substrate (base). From this you will make a series of coloured prints. This is an exciting process that is full of surprises through experimenting with textures, layers and colour.

Ideally this worksop would be over two three hour sessions, one hour to create the collographs and the second hour to print the plates.

LINO CUT & PRINT

Come and design, carve and print a lovely scene inspired by the seasons. Katrina will guide you through the process of this enjoyable art-form from drawing board to print. You will leave with at least one print ready to frame.
