LOOSE BOLD LANDSCAPES
For all. Bring your favourite medium
It’s a day of go bold or go home. Many of us are still led by our tame school art teaching yet are inspired by the looseness and freedom that some artists achieve, capturing the feel of a subject in a few strokes. So we have to step out of our comfort zone, take some risks and ‘listen’ to the painting, embracing the ‘happy accidents’ that can sometimes become our favourite part!
Known for her fun, thorough and professional classes with lots of demonstration, Liana brings a lightheartedness and willingness to support each students’ interests, particularly in this time of small, distanced classes [in a large airy studio].
