Karen Welsh’s workshop was hugely enjoyed by all the participants.
Here are some of them with their colourful abstract work.

If you would like to join Michael’s workshop please contact me as soon as possible. You can see more of Michael’s work; michaelparkerart.com
Michael Parker, a well-known Christchurch artist, is skilled in palette knife painting, rarely using brushes! His loose expressionist style and range of subjects has made him a favourite with the Dorset public. Come along and experiment with or improve your technique with knife painting! Working mainly with a knife can give a very distinctive character to your work.
Saturday 20th July - Mike Bragg- Mixed Media.
Using watercolours, acrylics, inks, oil pastels and collage, Mike uses different tchniques in an experimental style. On the theme of Riverside with Winter Trees, he will cover planning, making small sketches to choose composition, looking at movement, links and structures. Exploring techniques with a variety of media to promote interesting mark-making and colour to create effects and moods. Then bringing the whole together wth energy and flow.
