As autumn draws to a close, well known TV artist Charles Evans will be joining us for this winter themed, one day workshop. Charles will provide a day of relaxed painting, with expert tips on techniques and colours.
This workshop is suitable for all abilities.
More about the artist (from the artist’s website):
“Born and bred as a country boy in 1953 in the then West Riding of Yorkshire, I had the privilege of a childhood spent playing in the fields and woods, rivers and lakesides around the farm where I was born and brought up. This fuelled an already inbred appreciation of the countryside, and the wonders and workings of it”. “After a fairly conventional schooling, I studied at Lincoln College of Art and finally turned to the medium of watercolour. Watercolour is the traditional English medium because, as many artists have discovered, it captures the beautiful sense of atmosphere, haziness, dampness and watery skies of the British landscape”. As well as his TV work, Charles is famous for his many commissions for the Coal board and his work as a demonstrator for Windsor and Newton.
