Welcome to Field Breaks Art Club, designed to motivate and inspire you as we head through the Autumn.  FBA Artist in Residence Hazel Money will guide you through a series of short and enjoyable workshops covering differing techniques and subjects.
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.
  • Motivate yourself with a new idea
  • Learn something different
  • No maximum class size

Just £12 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.  
Heathland in Acrylic Paints

Derbyshire Moorlands in Soft Pastels

Friday 6th December 10:00am - 11:30am

Christmas Poinsettia in Watercolours

Monday 9th December 10:00am - 11:30am

This workshop will focus on using clean, bright colour against a dark contrasting background to bring out these wonderfully cheerful seasonal plants.  With an emphasis on loose brushwork, we will flick, splatter and let our cauliflowers bloom all over for some relaxed watercolour fun.

Materials list:  Paper suitable for watercolour (a couple of sheets)- Any set of watercolours, (pans or tubes) - clean mixing palette or plate - a medium round watercolour brush - kitchen towel to keep hands clean and do some blotting - masking tape - pencil and eraser
