Course 1 : Mixed Media Landscapes using Mark Making
This will explore the endless possibilities of mark making in a fun way using a variety of natural media such as coffee, spices, salt, rice and charcoal. You will be using your own homemade paintbrushes created from natural materials found in the grounds of Hanford such as twigs, feathers and hay. We will be cutting, tearing, burning and manipulating the paper to produce exciting 2D landscapes.
Course 2: Pyjamas and Popcorn
In the Art Barn you will make a pair of pyjama bottoms or shorts from plain fabric using the sewing machines. These will then be dyed using natural pigments in a pot over the fire pit. Whilst you are in the Bushcraft area, you will learn to whittle wooden tools, make charcoal from willow twigs and cook fruit and vegetables foraged from our historic walled garden.
