The expressive and emotional qualities of colour will be explored as well as its formal qualities.

Gouache Paintingwith Maggie O’Brien

Our one day Gouache course provides a wonderful ‘taster’ of this exciting medium. Many well known artists from J M W Turner through to Patrick Heron, Howard Hodgkin, Roger Hilton and, more recently, Anish Kapoor have used gouache as a painting medium. Maggie O’Brien is the most generous and encouraging of artist teachers; sharing the tricks of her trade and helping students to brave trying methods and techniques which are new to them.

This stimulating course offers beginners and those with limited experience of printmaking the opportunity to explore a wide range of printing techniques over two days. The teaching will be made up of both hands-on training and demonstrations. Techniques will include mono-printing with a press, intaglio and relief collagraph printing and drypoint.

Printing in Colour – Sir Terry Frostwith Mary Crockett

An unmissable opportunity for fans of Frost to make prints under expert guidance.

Stoneman Gallery in Penzance has generously agreed to lend a number of the plates and prints made by Frost to help us teach this course.

Monoprinting and Drypointwith Naomi Frears

Both monoprinting and drypoint are wonderfully immediate printmaking processes which can inform and reflect the process of painting. Using simple very accessible methods of drawing and applying coloured printing ink, vibrant and unique original prints can be created. Monoprinting and drypoint would be of benefit to artists of all levels of experience to help provide a foundation for new avenues in their work.

Inspired by O’Caseywith Mary Crockett

This course will concentrate on the crisp, sharp lines of dry point and in contrast, carborundum which O’Casey used to create rich textured areas of tone. Mary Crockett who created prints with O’Casey towards the end of his life will guide students throughout the course. Stoneman Graphics who made many of his prints over the years have generously lent plates and prints made by the artist.
