Debbie gained a Diploma in Botanical Illustration from the English Gardening School at the Chelsea Physic Garden and has been teaching since then. She has worked in schools programmes and adult education classes. Her teaching methods inspire her students, from beginners to more experienced artists to enjoy producing beautiful botanical paintings. Although this demands patience, an eye for detail and the ability to draw a specimen accurately, her tuition draws out these often latent talents within in her students, which some believe they never possessed. Debbie’s classes are noted for their relaxed and informal atmosphere – always good fun! All materials are provided for use on the day

ANN HULME
DRAWING AND PAINTING FRI MORNINGS - 9.30 - 12.30 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 handling space, and this is what 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.
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.
