Overview
This workshop offers an exciting opportunity to meet local artist, Shelley Perry, during her solo exhibition in the gallery at Hengistbury Head Visitor Centre and discover how her paintings are created. The workshop will be held upstairs in the exhibition so that the works on display can be used as inspiration and reference as you learn how to create your own hand-painted landscape. Shelley will guide you through the process of discovering a unique, brush-free way of painting using only your hands. This playful and expressive acrylic workshop is all about letting go, exploring colour, and enjoying the creative process. No experience needed – just curiosity and a willingness to get messy!
