(UK timings)
This LivePlus™ online workshop is suitable for beginners and improvers alike. This is a work-along workshop and so we would encourage students to have their materials to hand, ready to participate live during the class.
You do not need to be able to draw or paint in the traditional sense to enjoy this course - all you need is an open mind! This course is for anyone who wants to push their boundaries and is willing to explore & experiment.
Workshop details
This two-part workshop explores a Winter still life scene and can be taken as a stand-alone class or as a follow on from other mixed media courses with Jo Dixon. This class is an opportunity to experiment with some mixed media techniques and discover how to combine different media to express your observations of colour, pattern and texture and bring richness to your work.
Winter is a time of reflection and offers many surprising inspirational visual opportunities. Often these can be looking out onto a frosty landscape, but this time we'll be looking inside and creating rich and fruity compositions. The fruit bowl offers a focus for colour and highlights, shapes and textures, which we will explore and experiment with media and techniques to express our ideas.

Jo will offer personalised critique / feedback via the blackboard for any work uploaded by students throughout the series, and within thirty days of the final class ending. You will be sent the link to access your blackboard in the week before your class begins and will have access for at least sixty days after the class ends.
After the live session has finished on Zoom, we will share the link to view the recording on the blackboard. You can watch the recording as many times as you like for sixty days.
