About

Try new drawing techniques and experiment with scale alongside artist Ian Malhotra, inspired by our 'Radical Harmony' exhibition.

Explore how bold artists created luminous landscapes from dots and dabs of harmonious colours. Look for pure colours and simplified shapes in your favourite photographs and turn pictures into paintings.

Use a variety of materials including paint, pens, textures and tools. Create your own pointillist artworks or add to a collaborate scene.

You may wish to dress for mess as this workshop will include the use of paint.
