Shape of the Day

 

Morning
10:00 to 10:30 Intro
10:30 to 11:30 Beginning with observational studies outside to awaken the senses and warm up
11:30 to 12:30 Exploring mark making and movement in the barn

Afternoon
12:30 to 1:30 Lunch break
1:30 to 5:00 Working directly from the observational drawings from earlier, experimenting with paint to access the inner landscape

We will not be limited by scale. We can create immersive works if desired, using water based pigments and large paper.

​

Throughout the day, we aim to move beyond representation by noticing rhythms in water, shadows, and reflections, finding the essence of the subject rather than simply recording what we see, in order to evolve toward a more abstract, elemental visual language.

All materials are provided. Just bring yourself and some lunch. There is a kitchen, with tea and coffee available all day.

​

1 to 1 Studio Sessions, Somerset

I also offer one to one sessions in my studio, immersed in the hills and out in the lanes. Contact me to arrange a time that works for you, either a morning or afternoon session of four hours.

These sessions are an opportunity to go deeper into your personal process, working closely with your individual way of seeing and making. We will be working with paint and image.
