Five-week art course with tutor Sarah John to create collaged landscapes from watercolour and gel plate experiments, suitable for all skill levels.
Sarah John is leading a five-week course on landscape and collage at Exeter Phoenix, starting Tuesday 3 November. It's a series of five sessions running through to 1 December, with classes on 3, 10, 17 and 24 November and the final one on 1 December, all from 2pm to 4.30pm in the Top Studio.
The course treats collage as a creative practice that brings different mediums and ideas together to encourage new ways of seeing, thinking and making. You'll start with geli plate and watercolour experiments and build from there to create collaged landscapes, incorporating text, textiles and your own photos or drawings into scaled-up artwork. It's suitable for all skill levels, and all basic materials are provided, so you don't need to bring your own kit to get started.
