Workshop - Wildflower Tile Painting
Eco Skills Centre - Arborfield
Thursday 14th August - 1-4pm | Restricted to 8 people
We're delighted to be able to offer this fabulous activity which will bring together a group of you to create your very own wild flower tile paining.
Activity Details:
Paint wildflowers on a wooden tile to go on the Eco Centre shed
Your signed tile, 20-25 cm square, will be weatherproofed and used to decorate our shed but there may be time to do a mini version to take home.Group size: 8
This session is suitable for everyone- from complete beginners who are terrified of art - to those who already enjoy painting.Materials needed:
- An old apron. Please wear clothes that don’t matter.
- There’s no WiFi at the Eco Centre so it would be a good idea to screen shot your favourite designs and bring them along. If you have an iPad or similar to display these on that would be great. Otherwise you can use your phone or print them out.
- All other materials will be provided.We will be using acrylic paints and painting in a loose, impressionistic style. Step by step instruction will be given and the brilliant thing about acrylics is that you can paint over any parts you’re not happy with!A suggested donation of £5 pp towards running costs and materials would be received with thanks.

They teach creative minds how to make birdboxes, bug hotels and hedgehog houses.Each session lasts approximately 2 hours, in our birdbox classes each person leaves with their own birdbox.
