20 November 2025- Full Day – Margaret Bird: Atmospheric Skies in Oil and Cold Wax

Description

Atmospheric Skies in Oil and Cold Wax

The aim is to paint an atmospheric, moody sky over an abstracted landscape, focussing on the sky.

We will be painting on a board covered with oil paper. Some experience with oil and cold wax painting is helpful, but not essential.

Margaret will guide you through blending, layering, and texturing techniques, helping you bring depth and dimension to your artwork.

Tea, coffee & biscuit available throughout the day

Sensible precautions when using paints or chemical products are essential. Asthma sufferers should be aware that fumes from solvents may be present.
