Late summer flowers, fruits and berries are full of rich, velvety colours. They have soaked up the heat of the summer sun and every colour reflects it back and sings. Even if the blooms are over blown and turning to seed the sculptural character of the plant is still beautiful. This 4 day course is about exploring ways of courageously handling luscious paint to create paintings that go beyond traditional flower paintings. The subject is a gift for painting. The studio will be filled with flowers and the course will be packed with demonstrations and exercises to inspire an artist to be playful and celebrate both painting and the plants.
