PAINTING
ON PRINTED SURFACES A printed or patterned
surface already has a power - add to this by painting
an extra layer creating some fantastic effects.
Take your cues from the surface or just paint a
traditional image, both roads lead to a depth with
exciting outcomes. Surfaces to use include timber,
wallpapers, fabric, printed papers, - just bring
yourself, or, if you have something special you'd
like to paint onto, this is your chance. This workshop
is beneficial to beginners and people with prior
painting experience. LED BY DANA ASHLAKOFF Sunday

PHOTOGRAPHY Learn
basic darkroom techniques using direct exposure

of black & white photography back to its roots
using light to paint pictures. With objects placed,
photographic paper is exposed to light, the objects
block its path & a silhouette image is created.

saved jewellery…... You can also bring your own
black and white negatives to use. LED BY
