The best class I've been to for atmosphere and that led me to explore colour and get out of my comfort zone.

Back by popular demand!! A one-day intensive workshop with artist Fiona Fouhy learning her painterly monotype process! Monotype prints are entirely unique and created through a process of oily inks being pressed and transferred from a flat surface onto paper. Gestural and textural marks can be achieved through the use of a wide variety of tools which can either remove or apply the ink to your plate. Through these tools, you will explore the boundaries of mark making with Monotypes. Monotype/ Monoprinting is a very flexible and liberating process that is useful for painters, printmakers and image makers of any kind. This workshop will allow you to experiment with both black and coloured inks, using Fiona’s portable press. By the end of the day you will have created a varied collection of very original prints. We will have two small presses available, Fiona's and a smaller portable press (the xcut xpress) as well.
Fiona Fouhy graduated in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins in 2007 and has been using printmaking in her art practice for the past 9 years. Her main medium is monoprinting, which she changes and develops according to the ideas in her work. She works experimentally in both large and small scale, including the production of animations (see www.fionafouhy.com). Fiona has taught monoprinting at East London Print studios and has done multiple printmaking demonstrations at galleries and events in the UK. Click here to see her monoprint-based animation, Site Formation.
Class size is small (limited to six), so a great deal of individual attention will be given. The workshop is appropriate for beginners and experienced art-makers.
*Course fees are non-refundable unless someone is able to take your spot, in which we'll refund your fees minus £10 registration . If the course is cancelled for some unforeseen reason, we will refund you 100% of your payment.

Curious about oil painting? This is a one-day course to introduce you to the basics of oil painting. Oil painting can be intimidating and seem difficult to do at home, but it actually very doable! Whether you are a curious absolute beginner or someone who wants to get back into oil painting, this day course will help you get up and running. We will cover basics as palette set-up, types of brushes, mediums, painting surfaces, paints and various ways of beginning a painting. You will practise colour mixing and brushwork and take inspiration from a wide variety of amazing paintings from art history. In the afternoon you will get the chance to paint a small still-life. At the end of the day, you will take away a list of materials and notes, a small painting, and basic skills to get going with oil paints.
This is a small group class with 8 students max, therefore a great deal of individual attention is given. The class takes place in our private studio in Stoke Newington, just south of Clissold Park (access up two flights of stairs). We will break for an hour for lunch from 12:30-1:30. Tea and biscuits provided!

This is a one-day workshop for people who have attended the Get Into/Get Back into Oil Painting workshop as well as others with some experience in oil paint who would like an intensive day of exploring colour. Colour mixing and colour relationships will be the main focus of the day, and we will also continue to explore composition and brushwork. We will review the basics of palette set-up, look at some interesting ways colours 'interact' in modern and old master paintings, discuss some basic colour theory, do some quick colour exercises, and then make a slightly longer painting based on a landscape image in the afternoon. You will leave the workshop with a better understanding of how colours interact and having tried out some new approaches to colour in oil painting.
