It's been almost three months since I last posted an article here but now I'm ready to share my experience of running art workshops! As it was a complete new venture for me it took quite some time to prepare the weekly classes. We're now almost at the end of the second module (8th week) and my students have already created wonderful things with various materials such as acrylics, acrylic medium, plaster filler, ink, palette knife, cloth, cling film, dried flowers and leaves, netting and fabric. I couldn't have asked for a better goup; they are very enthusiastic, creative, sociable and focussed so that makes it a lot easier for me.
Here's an impression of what they have done:

Experimenting with medium |
On the 3rd of March I organised a mixed media art workshop for 10 women during a women's retreat. Most of them didn't have any experience with painting and/or collage and after two hours they had created an inspirational art piece on canvas. The feedback from participants and the main organiser was very positive so I'm invited to do it again in May!
