The Artshed

Established by Rosalyn Bolt, The Art Class is held at Loudwater Farm every Wednesday morning from 10.30am to 1pm. It is suitable for both beginners and those with some experience.

The art class is now being facilitated by Miranda Richmond who will be introducing a series of optional drawing/design exercises aimed at familiarising the students with a variety of materials and approaches to image-making. A variety of materials are supplied including paper, acrylic paint, pastels, charcoal etc. We also aim to explore some printing and 3D techniques. Students should supply their own canvasses and oil paints if they wish to use these. In warmer weather we can work outside in the attractive surroundings bordered by the River Chess.

Miranda is a practising painter with a long experience of art teaching and exhibiting, mainly in North-East England.

Cost: £8/session
