ANN HULME
DRAWING AND PAINTING FRI MORNINGS - 9.30 - 12.30 FRI AFTERNOONS 1.00 - 4.00 Art is inspiring; to be able to render form, to give shape to ideas, to bring into existence the illusion of reality through painting and drawing seems like magic. Some part of it is magic, but the rest can be taught. The basic approach to it all, to seeing, is applying relative measurement, learning perspective, foreshortening and we shall be applying on these courses. Working with colour follows from basic drawing. Painting on these courses can be in watercolour, acrylics or oil paint . Remember it is all to enjoy. There are stages as in everything and you can make good progress in a short space of time if you apply the basic formal elements.
ANN SKEHEL
Silver workshops During the afternoons you will be working with sterling silver and learning basic techniques to create pieces of jewellery to your own design. Firstly you will design your piece of jewellery, a simple ring, pendant, earrings or simple bangle. We will look at what you will need to make your jewellery. Then you will learn how to manipulate your silver by cutting, bending, shaping and texturing. Some processes will require annealing, fusing and soldering. You can learn how to set a cabochon stone on a ring or pendant, and how to make your own findings from ear hooks to necklace clasps. There will be a lot of sanding to get rid of any marks before you will learn how to polish it to a high shine.
VAL WELHAM
Play with clay for a day one day workshop in which you can explore the medium of clay. Working from various sources; photographs, objects, nature, you will be encouraged to experiment with abstract forms as well as literal interpretations. SARAH COOKE
In this one-day course, you can make a small bag, table mat or attractive wall-hanging. You will learn how to warp up a frame loom, basic weaving techniques, and have the opportunity to try out lots of different materials, and learn how to finish off your piece of weaving. The course is suitable for complete beginners, but experienced weavers will also be inspired to look at their choice of materials in a completely new way. All materials will be provided, including plastics, twines, phone cables, foam packaging, random yarns, fabrics, old jewellery. A charge of £4 per person to be paid on the day. You also have the option of buying the frame loom, pick-up stick and shuttle, for £15, at the end of the session.
