Step into the colourful, expressive world of Vincent van Gogh in this creative, hands-on art class set in the beautiful surroundings of Coolings Garden Centre.
This two-hour workshop is perfect for beginners and art enthusiasts alike. We’ll begin with a short introduction to Van Gogh’s life and explore where he was in his artistic journey when he painted the stunning Fritillarias in a Copper Vase. Then, we’ll dive into the fundamentals of how to look at art — discussing colour, subject, brushstrokes, composition, viewpoint, title, and influences.
 
You'll be guided through the process of building your own Van Gogh-inspired piece:
 
🖼️ Explore composition ideas through mini thumbnail sketches
✏️ Create rough sketches on paper to plan your painting
🎨 Learn how to mix acrylics and choose your colour palette
🖌️ Discover brush techniques like stippling, pointillism, and impasto
🖼️ Finally, bring your canvas to life with bold colours and textured brushwork!
 
All materials are included — just bring yourself and a willingness to get creative.
Come paint with us and walk away with your own vibrant, Van Gogh-style masterpiece!
