Hands-on War Paint: Mark-making
During this workshop we’ll be examining ‘A Trench at Loos’ (1915) by Lieutenant Arthur Royce Bradbury, one of the paintings featured in our War Paint exhibition.
We’ll begin with a discussion about the painting, exploring the presentation of the artwork, its historical and political context, and an introduction to the use of mark-making in art.
We’ll then use mark-making techniques, learning about the use of textures, marks, lines and dots to make your own drawing or painting.
All levels are welcome. Materials will be provided. The workshop runs from 7pm to 8.30pm.
