CONTEMPORARY Still Life with HEIDI WOLFENDEN
Sunday 9 November 2025
Come and join my warm and welcoming Contemporary Still Life Workshop. I'll start the session by introducing you to Modernist artists, Matisse and Cezanne, who were both well known for revolutionising the still life genre.
I’ll show you how to create dynamic and visually appealing compositions. We’ll discuss how to create a focal point, achieve balance and explore variation, cropping and contrast.
I’ll be providing a curated selection of real-life objects & fabrics, as well as an inspiring range of visual reference materials, to spark your creativity!
Firstly, we will create 3-4 rough thumbnail sketches in pencil. This hands-on activity will help you to develop a greater understanding of composition and plan out your artwork. From there, we’ll create a still life painting, using acrylics on canvas. You’ll be provided with plenty of encouragement and guidance along the way! This fun and friendly workshop is ideal for both beginners and intermediate students.
