10:30 am - 1:00 pm
Our Saturday Adults Workshops are back on the last Saturday of each month.
Try out a new art or craft technique each month, inspired by the artists in our current exhibitions programme
Papercraft portraits
Join our Learning team as they explore the artists and work featured at the gallery and in the collection through a relaxed online workshop where we all make together.
This month we will be looking at the work Anya Paintsil, whose work has recently been acquired from the collection.
Using personal imagery as inspiration, Anya creates large scale hand punched pull rugs, which are often self-portraits, or depict members of her family and friends, and explore themes such as identity, Welsh-ness and race.
In this online workshop we will use basic materials to create a mixed media portrait, inspired by Anya’s work.
What you will need:
- Collage materials (preferably full page A4 size pages)
- Magazines
- Vintage paper / maps / disused correspondence
- Water based paint
- Pencil
- Pens
- Pastels
- PVA glue or glue stick
- Scissors or scalpel
- Small hand mirror (optional)
- Rubber
- Ruler
This workshop will take place live on Zoom.
