Join us for this full day workshop in acrylic painting. Explore the beauty of the landscape in vibrant acrylics!
Join award-winning South Australian artist Robin Hicks for a relaxed, hands-on workshop designed to help you capture the essence of the natural world with confidence and creativity. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to build on your painting skills, you’ll learn how to simplify a scene, build depth, and bring light and atmosphere into your seascapes using the versatility of acrylic paint.
Through guided demonstrations, step-by-step techniques, and individual support, you’ll walk away with your own finished artwork and a toolkit of tips for painting seascapes with flair.
