Our next Art Workshop at Nant yr Odyn

November 8th 10am-4pm

Acrylic Painting Without a Brush?!

Curious about new ways to paint? Join artist Emma-Jayne Holmes for a hands-on workshop that explores acrylic painting from a fresh perspective—no brushes required.

Inspired by the landscape, you’ll create a series of small, expressive paintings using alternative tools and techniques. By mixing acrylics with a transparent medium, you’ll learn how to build rich layers, experiment with mark-making, and develop intriguing textures.

Emma will guide you through her unique process, sharing the unconventional tools and methods she’s discovered in her own practice.

This workshop is open to all levels, including complete beginners—so whether you’re picking up paint for the first time or looking to expand your creative approach, you’ll be warmly welcomed.

All materials are provided, just bring your lunch.
The cost for the workshop is £20 please contact [email protected] to book via Bacs online 😊

Sketchbooks and sketching workshop

10am-4/5pm, with (morning and afternoon) 20 min break and 45 min-1hr lunch break.

Join artist Emma-Jayne for an inspiring day of sketching and sketchbook making. The workshop begins by exploring different types of sketchbooks before creating your own simple, pocket-sized books — perfect for walks, travel, and capturing ideas on the go.

Through a series of guided creative exercises, you’ll build confidence in your drawing, develop new skills, and learn to value your own unique marks and style. The focus is on experimentation, curiosity, and enjoying the process. A wide range of artist-quality materials will be available for you to explore throughout the day.

You’ll leave with a collection of handmade sketchbooks, pages filled with drawing explorations to continue developing at home, and fresh enthusiasm for your creative practice.

All materials are provided — just bring yourself and a willingness to have a go!

Both workshops are for ages 8 and upwards.
Young people must be accompanied by a parent. Please email [email protected]
