This workshop provides a great opportunity for enhancing your creativity by exploring a wide range of techniques used by Marguerite. Expect an intense, concentrated, and lively workshop with topics.

• Day one will be all about mixing the correct consistency paint to create and paint your own streaky background glass as well as learning to create a backgrounds for use in other techniques during the rest of the workshop. Once the glass is fired, carried over to following days, Marguerite will show you how to use the flow pattern as a guide to create simplistic tree and landscapes, creating a beautiful panel.
• On day two you will complete your treescape panels. Then Marguerite will demonstrate how to create monoprints of silhouettes.
• Day three will be focused on creating a series of abstract work. Whether you are learning for the first time or refreshing your skills, this will be a fun and explorative part of the course. During this part of the workshop, you’ll learn how to observe what’s around you and how to translate ideas into Abstract design. Throughout the morning we will venture outside (weather permitting). You will be creating a journal by taking reference photos and sketching ideas. Returning to the studio, we will explore your gathered inspirations into abstract designs.
• Day four will cover abstract land and seascapes as well as simplistic pictorial seascapes and waves, Your projects will only be fired that evening. You will need to be able to collect your pieces the following morning (the 5th day)
• After the workshop, you will have access to a special private Facebook group. This gives you the opportunity to explore what you have learned at home, and have a place where you can post photos and ask questions if you need some help with the techniques that you have learned during class.

The plan is always to help you reach your potential, painting YOUR way, with YOUR voice and vision, but better than ever before. Come be encouraged and inspired in a fun, upbeat atmosphere and go home ready to create your best work yet.
