On-Site artist Cecilia Sordi Campos works experimentally within the still life tradition, capturing the natural beauty of flowers and fruit to document her journey of infertility. Join Cecilia in a guided workshop exploring experimental image making with gouache painting and lumen printing.   

Working from a live still life of flowers and fruit you will create a vibrant interpretation of the natural world - translating colour, light and texture to the page. Participants will be introduced to the fundamentals of still life painting, exploring techniques Cecilia works with in her own practice to create beautiful and arresting imagery layered with meaning.  

Participants with all levels of experience and ability are welcomed and encouraged.
