Another View: Artist Led Contemporary Landscapes Workshop - Beth Horner

Please note that despite the venue being closed this event will still go ahead as planned.

In this hands-on workshop led by Beth Horner, you will explore her technique of combining cotton rag paper, plaster strips and acrylic paint to craft dynamic, textured landscape paintings.

You will experiment with different surface qualities to add depth and play with perspective in unique and unexpected ways. Draw upon reference images provided, your own images, or a combination of both to discover emotive compositions that inspire you to delve into the tactile nature of the landscape.

The session will take place on 18 May, and run from 1-4pm. Tickets will be £25 per person (concessions are available) and must be booked in advance. This workshop is most suited to young people and adults (16 and above). We are committed to reducing barriers to attendance, therefore if you would like to attend but are concerned about the cost or accessibility, please get in touch.

This workshop is part of our art workshop series, inspired by our exhibition Another View: Landscapes by Women Artists

As the exhibition looks at how landscapes have been interpreted and represented by women over the 19th and 20th centuries, our workshops explore how a variety of contemporary women artists today are translating their experience of landscapes into their practice. Participants will be supported to create their own unique piece to take home, drawing on inspiration from each artists own techniques, ideas and experiences.

She graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in Painting in 2020, having received a BA in Painting from Wimbledon College of Art in 2017.
