Groups are encouraged to get involved in creating a giant collaborative painting. Playfully experimenting with a range of art materials, everyone has the opportunity to freely express themselves in drawing and painting. Working on a large expanse of paper with pots of brightly coloured paint, large brushes and coloured pastels, we end with a fabulous piece of art – a positive reminder of shared fun and achievement.
Community groups – intergenerational, families, the marginalised and hard-to-reach
Either I come to you wherever you are, or if you’re local, make the most of an enhanced learning environment at my studio in rural Northumberland.
