Commencing on Wednesday 17th April, accomplished local artist and trainer, Janine Reeves will be leading a 5-week art exploration course within the beautiful surroundings of Old Hall Southwold. A graduate in Fine Art from the Art Academy in London, Janine won a prestigious scholarship to study watercolour in Rome under Carole Robb formerly of the New York Studio School. She now operates as a freelance artist painting and creating work for exhibition and sale.
Janine will be the guide to a small group of participants on a journey of self expression, exploring and observing their natural surroundings, encouraging the creation of free flowing and personal pieces of art using a variety of mediums. Focusing on watercolour paint, pastel pencils and collage, Janine will guide you through the nuance and technique of each form, whilst encouraging a sense of play and personal expression within a small, sociable and relaxed group environment.
No previous experience is necessary, and all equipment will be provided.
