This workshop is dedicated to teaching participants how to draw and paint portraits that are expressive and exciting.

Whether you're a beginner, intermediate or advanced student, this workshop has something for all levels of experience to learn and take away.

Throughout the day, you'll engage in structured projects that make learning to draw faces enjoyable and accessible with easy-to-follow techniques. The workshop will consist of several instructor-led demonstrations to teach how to integrate collage and colours into mixed media artworks.

No matter your skill level, everyone is welcome to participate in this inclusive and engaging workshop. Come and discover the joy of bringing portraits to life through the unique blend of drawing, painting, colour, and collage.

This class is all about trying new techniques and experimenting in a supportive environment where you can learn new ways to express yourself through art.
