Expressive Painting!

Expressive Painting!
Creative explorations inspired by dreams, nature and imagination

A 6 week course on Friday afternoons (with a drop in option) 
1.45 – 4.30 pm, Fridays 30th October to 4th December 2026

Venue: Jackson’s Art (aka Pegasus Art) in Thrupp, Stroud GL5 2AZ
£155 full course or £33 per session (art materials and tea included)

Happy accidents are portals into new ways of seeing! Making a mess is very much encouraged! Come and play with paint, learn new skills, enjoy rich conversations and bask in jewel-like hues. This course is designed to encourage your creative expression through supportive and relaxing exercises, and to develop your confidence to paint expressively and intuitively.

We’ll work in watercolour with some oil painting and mixed media elements. Using the evocative qualities of paint and colour, we’ll explore memories, moods, dreams and visions in this luminous medium. There will be the opportunity to explore oil painting in one session and acrylics in at least one session.

A non-judgemental, friendly place to get to know your own artistic voice, however shy it may currently be. Suitable for beginners, rusty returners to painting, and more experienced artists looking for fresh, imaginative approaches. All art materials will be provided and all the key painting techniques will be taught.
