Please come along and join me at my art workshops in acrylics, linocut printing and soft pastels in the beautiful Derbyshire Peak District.  Whether you are on holiday or living nearby, a novice or experienced - everyone is welcome.   I am a professional artist and was a heat semi-finalist in Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year competition, I have exhibited with the Royal Society of British Artists and Royal Society of Marine Artist Mall Galleries, London. Wednesday workshops are located at my home studio. You have a choice of working in acrylics and/or mixed media, soft pastels or linocut printing.  Subjects include: landscapes, still life, abstract, portraits, etc. The workshops are fun, relaxing and informative. I also hold a Saturday Art Workshops advertised on Craft Courses! I have a relaxed and informative approach to working with acrylics and mixed media and other techniques. I was a professional muralist for 11 years, specialising in trompe l'oeil (trick of the eye) techniques.  Although photo realism painting in acrylics was essential in creating a painting illusion, I have also worked more recently with impasto and mixed media using acrylics which is an enjoyable and liberating experience.   I was a former member of the Association of Professional Muralists and have appeared on television and radio. I have a friendly dog called Phoebe! What's included in the price? Refreshments plus lunch included in day workshop price.   The workshops are suitable for any age or experience, maximum class size of 4.  Contact Denise for a list of materials required if you are supplying your own.  Alternatively I can supply all materials for an additional £10.00 on the day.

As you create art, you’ll gain insights into your thoughts, emotions, and subconscious mind, fostering greater self-awareness. * Empowerment and Agency: Art therapy emphasizes the process rather than the end result, empowering you to embrace imperfection and experiment without judgment. This approach can extend to other aspects of life, promoting a sense of agency and resilience. * Stress Reduction: Engaging in creative activities can reduce stress and promote relaxation.
