Paradise Art Class • Garden Delights

This special drawing workshop is inspired by the beauty of Penny’s magical garden - a space created with passion, artistry, and delight. Join me for a guided art plein air experience, hosted in Penny's Garden as the source of inspiration to capture the glorious colours and textures of flowers and greenery. We gather at a round table for socials and laughter and cheers, then meander and explore as Edwin the cat does, to find beautiful, secret places that match your peace within.

Expect demonstrations for colour harmony, flower anatomy, and media blending for realism and expressionism!

All styles, levels of experience, and drawing media are welcome!

Wed Sept 20th, 2023 from 10am-4pm *outdoor class, weather permitting.

$100 includes lunch, snacks + wine and non-alcoholic refreshments
