A one‑day workshop exploring naturalistic colour mixing, seasonal palettes, and abstract responses to autumn’s shifting atmosphere. You'll begin with a guided colour‑mixing session focused on building soft, earthy, on‑trend palettes; muted ochres, moss greens, warm neutrals, and the smoky reds that sit between foliage and soil. We’ll work from gathered autumn references (leaves, seed pods, textures) but translate them into abstracted colour fields, layered marks, and intuitive compositions.
Throughout the day you’ll explore: Autumn palette building, mixing naturalistic colours without slipping into literal representation. Layering techniques such as glazes, staining, dry‑brush texture.
Expect a warm, exploratory day where colour leads the painting. You’ll leave with a richly layered abstract piece and a personalised palette you can use in future work.
