About
Join artist Jo Starkey in The Studio for a fun and inspiring day creating a vibrant abstract forest painting at Leonardslee Lakes & Gardens.
Inspired by the magic of woodland scenes, this full-day workshop focuses on building rich layers of colour, light and atmosphere to create a striking contemporary forest painting full of depth and luminosity.
Working with acrylics on board, you’ll experiment with a variety of techniques and tools as you gradually develop your painting layer by layer. No artistic ability is required, and the trees themselves are surprisingly easy to paint. The process is relaxed, enjoyable and highly rewarding, with each stage adding more colour and character to your work.
