Coast - Mixed Media with Nigel Downing

Coast. A mixed media approach to painting the sea.

In this all-day workshop you will be shown practical ways to create seascapes that are expressive and exciting. We will explore and combine a range of media and methods to capture the sparkle of the sea, movement of weather and the textures of the coastline.

Nigel's work primarily begins with looking and drawing. Everything builds from this. starting point. For him drawing is an investigation, a method of recording an experience and expressing ideas and emotions.
