Title: Rough Seas in acrylics

Crashing waves on the shoreline can be a great subject matter using a palette knife and brushes.

We will examine how to harmonise our colour palette while creating a sense of atmosphere and movement in your work. Suitable for all abilities.

Next Workshop at The Willow Gallery, Oswestry.

‘Seascape with rocks and sand’ in Acrylics.

Sat 31st October 2026

Workshop - 'Seascape with rocks and sand' - Sat 31st October 2026

£75.00

‘Seascape with rocks and sand’ in Acrylics with Mark Warner. Sat 31st October 2026

Saturday 31st October, 10am to 4pm

Students will need to bring materials. (Materials list and Ref image will be provided)

The idea of the workshop is to develop a seascape scene that incorporates both rocks and sand, as well as looking at developing distance in the landscape. Atmospheric perspective is important so we will also look at developing movement in the sky and how the sky compliments the sea and shoreline.

Suitable for beginners and those with more experience, this relaxed and supportive workshop is a chance to explore acrylic techniques while capturing the atmosphere of the location.
