Alongside our South West Academy exhibition, exhibiting artist Phil Creek is delivering a three-week evening course exploring acrylic painting.

You will be able to learn about blending expressive and traditional methods and constructing both abstract and representative work on a variety of scales. The course runs on three consecutive Fridays from 4.30pm - 6.30pm (24, 31 Jan and 7 Feb).

The workshops are appropriate for beginners and those with more experience who want to develop their painting practice.

All materials will be provided but do bring your own sketchbooks if you would like to work from these.

Ages 14+ welcome
