Two Day Fluid Art Retreat in Dorset
Sandyholme, Beach Road, Studland
Fri 11th (4pm) - Sun 13th (12pm) October 2024
It is with great excitement that we are announcing our two day fluid art retreat in Dorset. We wanted to create an event to help inspire you, to meet other like minded creatives AND most importantly, to help you grow as an artist. Over the two days, there will be inspirational talks and creative workshops. We will be delving into the wonderfully complex world of colour theory and how to mix custom colours. Our creative workshops will give you hands on experience to develop your skills in ‘pouring with intention’ and there will be a marketing talk with practical advice to help you reach new audiences with your art. We want you to bring in some of your work so we can discuss it as a group and give you constructive feedback as we know that being an artist can be quite a isolating experience. We hope this event will be the start of a great community of like minded artists.
