PAINTING NATURE with Grace

Take a closer look at nature and give watercolour painting a go, in this social adult session. All levels welcome. In these relaxed sessions, we will take inspiration from natural objects (provided in the class) and learn how to record what we observe in pencil and paint. Grace will guide you through a range of techniques and methods when working with watercolour, which you can enjoy applying to your own mini-masterpiece throughout the session. Completely relaxed creative environment, with an opportunity to purchase drinks and snacks. All materials are provided. Please wear clothes you don’t mind getting painty (though watercolour does wash off). ABOUT THE ARTIST Grace has always been creative, growing up painting with watercolours on family trips to the Lake District. After spending time working in film and TV art departments in London, she pursued a career in publishing, working as an illustrator for a children’s publishing company for several years. Grace recently moved to Bath to study Creative Writing. She continues to run her freelance illustration business alongside her studies and loves inspiring others to paint, especially the natural world, which she finds beautifully rich in detail.

Traditional Glass Painting

"I just wanted to say what an absolutely fantastic day I had on the 12th on Kerry's glass painting class. Kerry explains everything so well and with infinite patience and really opened my eyes to new techniques. She is an amazing teacher and the class was brilliant." PaoloTraditional Glass PaintingCourse Outline Discover the traditional skill of painting on glass using vitreous glass paints and specialised brushes. In this one day course you will paint a number of samples and a finished piece to practise a variety of lining, shading and sgraffito techniques. The pieces will be fired overnight. Painted pieces from this course can be brought along and incorporated in our 2 day Leading and Glazing course. Please note: due to the paint pigment containing lead this course is not suitable for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Profile - Kerry Collison Kerry trained in stained glass at Swansea College of Art and has worked on commercial glazing projects as part of the Cathedral Studios, Canterbury and the Architectural Glass Centre, Swansea. Kerry’s personal work illustrates mischief and anarchy into controlled glass material; focusing on using traditional skills to produce fun and contemporary artworks. She is intent on bringing the comic book back to its original format: the stained glass window. Her pieces have been shown in numerous exhibitions, including the 6th John Ruskin Prize.
