About this event
The Porthmeor Art Collective is a project for young people aged 11 to 16 to connect with visual art and creativity through a contemporary artist. They use professional art materials in our art studio overlooking the sea, and it gives them a chance to be creative outside of school.
School of Painting are running these workshops in Summer Term:
Sunday 14th May – Responding to the Landscape: Explore the difference between recording a landscape and responding to it. Start with ink splatters and turn them into skies and textures while outside by drawing and painting on top with acrylic.
Sunday 11th June – Drawing Humans: An illustrator will introduce you the simple process of how to draw simple cartoons and then progress to a life-like figure. You’ll leave the session with a new way of approaching drawing that you can practice with any subject or style, from realistic to anime.
Sunday 9th July – Making Tools to experiment with Painting: You will learn some easy ways to design and build your own drawing tools, as many artists have done before. Then try out your own unique ‘brushes’ on different surfaces while drawing a vibrant Summer still life in the studio, using colourful water-based inks.
Sessions are £10 per person but we are keen to continue offering FREE Scholarship places for those on low income. They just need to contact Cat for a Scholarship application form to apply – [email protected].
