LOOKING FOR COLOUR
with Jan Peacock and Deb St Leger
A two-hour workshop exploring colour theory.
Join artists, Jan Peacock and Deb St Leger, for an afternoon exploring how art history’s colour theories fare when science tells us we all see colour differently- or worse still, that it doesn’t even exist.
In this workshop you will be guided to explore creating illusions of 3D volume, space and distance on art’s traditional 2D surface according to age-old conventions.
Sunday 1 October 2023
1:00 - 3:00 pm
Tickets: $10.00
Suitable for ages 14 +
All materials provided
BOOKINGS ARE ESSENTIAL
