In Person Workshops
For those who enjoy personal guidance in real time and a sociable environment, why not book a session and come along to my studio/gallery space at my leafy South Staffordshire home to spend a few fun hours making some art?
Join me in my purpose built studio and gallery space on the outskirts of lovely Kinver village in rural South Staffordshire where you can choose from a selection of blank sculptures that I have prepared for you and pass the time painting them any which way you like! Not dissimilar to a paint your own pottery class, pay for your blank sculptures individually (prices from £14.50), with all materials necessary to decorate them provided. Even better than a pottery class, you will be able to take your work home with you when you have finished, with no need to collect them at a later date! A £20 booking fee is required to reserve a two hour session for up to four people using the button below, which is ample time to paint one or more sculptures. Times and dates can be arranged to suit you, please get in touch to pick a slot. Unlimited tea and coffee is provided. There is (limited) parking onsite, so car sharing is recommended. An accessible toilet can be found a short drive away in Kinver Village. Please do not bring dogs as we have cats and chickens on site. There is a wide selection of lovely cafe’s, pubs and restaurants in the Kinver area if you are looking to dine out, as well as the famous Rock Houses and Hill Fort which are well worth a visit while you are in the area.Spend a few hours painting your most pressing sentiment in colourful poster form! Put down your thoughts boldly on paper then proudly show off your achievements to the world. Express your inner feelings in glorious technicolour (let’s keep it clean, though…!) and pop them up on the wall. No sophisticated skills required, just a sense of fun and something you want to get off your chest! Great if you have an event coming up you want to shout about or just want to brighten up your life! All materials and guidance provided - take your masterpieces home the same day. Unlimited tea and coffee is provided. There is (limited) parking onsite, so car sharing is recommended. An accessible toilet can be found a short drive away in Kinver Village. Please do not bring dogs as we have cats and chickens on site.
