In this workshop our Chair Simon Pink will guild you step by step painting a still life of fruit in a bowl – Aerial view. You will paint a checked table cloth, a bowl and a selection of thee pieces of simple fruit in a modern style.
Materials to bring:
- Selection of acrylic paints and brushes
- Square canvas as this shape works well with a round plate
- Canvas size 40cm sq.
- Table easel if you have one
- Pencil
- Ruler
- Water pot
- Palette
- Kitchen towel
- Table cover or newspaper
For the still life, please bring three pieces of fruit – figs, oranges, lemons, apples or anything simple will be perfect.
If you have one, also bring a shallow bowl with a rim to arrange your fruit in. If not, don't worry; we all know the shape of a simple bowl, so you'll still be able to follow along.
We'll also be painting a decorative design around the rim of the bowl, so have a think about what you'd like to include. You might have a favourite ceramic bowl or plate with a pattern you'd like to use as inspiration, or you could create your own unique design. Let's be adventurous, have fun, and make each painting a little different!
Please bring your own lunch but HACG will provide tea/coffee/milk.
Time and location: 9 October - 10:00am to 3:30pm at the Dunsden village hall
