Join us for a relaxed and creative workshop where you’ll transform seashells, beach rocks, or other found treasures into miniature coastal artworks. Using your favourite swimming spot or ocean view as inspiration, you’ll learn how to design and paint a beautiful beach scene perfectly suited to the shape of your chosen object.
Bring along a photo of a place you love by the sea, plus a couple of shells, stones, or beach finds to paint on. We’ll explore simple techniques for scaling down your image and simplifying your design so the most important features shine.
By the end of the session, you’ll head home with your own unique hand-painted beach scene — a small keepsake capturing the spirit of the coast.
