The Experience

Studio Introduction & Coastal Observation (Morning)

We begin in the studio with a relaxed introduction to the day before walking together down to Parrog to work directly in the landscape.

Through gentle, guided exercises you will explore:
• movement in waves, wind, and shoreline
• bright shifts in summer light and colour
• expressive line and texture from nature
• emotional response to a living landscape

You will gather visual material in a sketchbook through observation rather than finished drawing.

Reflection & Lunch Break

A pause to rest, reflect, and identify the visual ideas that will shape your painting. Please bring a packed lunch.

Studio Painting Session (Afternoon)

Back in the studio, your observations become the foundation for an abstract painting.

You will be guided through:
• energetic mark-making and expressive line
• layered, vibrant colour inspired by the coast
• composition and flow
• building atmosphere through paint

Each participant leaves with a finished artwork.

All materials are provided, including:
• sketchbook
