Erica and Claudia will jointly host this painting evening to create a group painting on a giant paper tablecloth, which will be cut up and shared out at the end of the session. Together they will informally guide the process of painting a still life of flowers, using various materials, including oil pastels and watercolour and inks, whilst joining in the process. We will be moving around the table, so that the finished piece is a collaborative work. We will intentionally loosen up, through various drawing/painting exercises.
