Workshops 2020
GOOD NEWS! We are delighted to announce that with the easing of COVID restrictions, the Peninsula Arts workshop program will re-commence in January, with appropriate social distancing and other safety precautions in place.
Please read our COVID Safe Plan prior to entering the Peninsula Arts premises.
Time to get those creative juices flowing again with some inspiring input from these excellent tutors! Book early as COVID restrictions limit the numbers we can accommodate in each workshop.
Watercolour & Ink
TUTOR: MAXINE WADE
Thursday 28th January 2021.
10am – 4 pm
In this workshop you’ll explore the 2 water soluble mediums: watercolour and Quink ink.
Maxine will demonstrate techniques for using both media to create images of landscape, animals and buildings.
If you have never used black Quink ink before you will be amazed what fantastic effects you can achieve! Not being waterproof, this ink, when wet with a brush, sprayed or put onto damp paper, can change into lovely shades of grey, yellow, green and orange. When you get the timing right, it can even give shades of blue for skies and shadows. Pure magic!
This workshop is an ideal introduction to water-based media and a great way to hone the type of ink and wash drawing skills that are well suited to urban or travel sketching.
Maxine will have available copies of her recently published book “Watercolour Warfare” for sale at the specially reduced workshop price of $40.00. You can also purchase her “Quintessential Guide to Using Quink Ink” at $15.00 per copy; an opportunity to take home instructions on paper! Cash sales only please.
Cost: $70 members $80 non-members
Due to COVID restrictions this workshop is limited to 12 people so book quickly!

Another not to be missed workshop!
We are very fortunate to be able to offer this workshop with Vivi, a very experienced painter and teacher, who came and did a wonderful demonstration to an audience of over 80 people at the studios earlier this month.
Vivi’s work is lively, colourful and instantly appealing and she is an entertaining and generous tutor.
In this watercolour workshop, students will learn techniques and tips on how to produce loose and vibrant seascapes and landscapes.
Vivi will be concentrating on tone, colour, edges and the importance of using quick, confident brushstrokes to produce fresh, spontaneous works.
