Field Breaks Art Club

Welcome to Field Breaks Art Club, designed to motivate and inspire you as we head through the Winter months.  FBA Artist in Residence Hazel Money will guide you through a series of short and enjoyable workshops covering differing techniques and subjects.

Learn something new from the comfort of your own home via zoom - using simple materials you already have

  • Motivate yourself with a new idea
  • Learn something different
  • No maximum class size

Just £15 per workshop

These workshops are designed to use simple art materials you are likely to have at home already.  Full demonstration is given throughout and you will have plenty of time for asking questions as we go along.  Classes take part on-line using Zoom so please ensure you have a comfortable perch to view your screen and a secure internet connection.  
Why not take time out and join in with one of our short on-line art classes?  Designed to inspire and motivate, the workshops are relaxed and fun, with an emphasis on experimentation.  Each class will introduce a topic or demonstrate a technique for you to try at home.  Join in during the class and chat to others for inspiration and ideas.

Winter market in line & wash

Monday 9th February 2026, 10:00am to 11:30am

We will invent a variety of different marks with our pen to bring interest to this Wintery view of Chesterfield market place.  Using a very simple palette of just two colours, you will use this restriction to help you focus on the main subject and give a loose, sketchy feel to this otherwise complicated view, focussing more on the temperature and values of your paints. 

All the elements in this scene are chosen to be easy to draw, and we will break down the composition into separate parts before linking them all together with colour.

Suitable for all abilities.

You will need:

Watercolour paper, any watercolour set, a permanent pen or biro, a pencil, a medium size watercolour brush, and a water pot. Some kitchen towel might be helpful too

Frosty morning  landscape using acrylic paints

Monday 23rd February 2026, 10:00am to 11:30am

Join us with your acrylic paints and enjoy creating the drama of low winter sunshine in this step-by-step workshop. Starting off with a coloured background, we will use the warm tone to help emphasise how bright and cold the shadows of snow are in comparison. Simplifying the palette into just a few colours, learn the importance of strong composition to create a striking and pleasing winter scene. Suitable for all abilities.

You will need: Any surface to paint on, preferably primed first with a white emulsion to stop the paint soaking in - watercolour paper, canvas or board will do fine, at whatever size you feel comfortable with. A selection of brushes, a palette and water pot, plus the following colours (or as near as you have) White (preferably titanium) yellow ochre,cerulean blue, ultramarine blue, or any other blue you have. Finally burnt sienna.

Once you have signed up to a class, you will receive a confirmation by email.
Materials list, Zoom link and an image to work from will be forwarded a few days before the workshop - please print this out beforehand if you can, however if you have no access to a printer, you will be able to see Hazel's throughout the workshop on your screen.
Please note - If you do not receive the link before the workshop, please do email or contact us, as the email may have gone astray - if you wait until after the workshop has taken place, unfortunately we cannot offer a refund
We look forward to seeing you soon!
