Canal Art Workshop
Saturday 17 May 2025 - Darlington
Available spaces
Learn how to paint beautiful flowers in the traditional canal art style with professional canal artist Stuart Garfoot in a step-by-step guide to creating a rose design on a board. Stuart will start the day with a brief history of this old tradition which will be followed by a morning of practical work creating your design on paper before transferring your design to your board. Once you have a rough guide, you will then start applying your paint in layers. In the afternoon you will create details including petals and other flourishes which will leave you with a beautiful painting for you to take home and proudly show off. You don't need a canal boat to appreciate and recreate this colourful folk art style, so why not come along and learn a new skill. Discover everything you need to know about the materials required and the techniques needed to carry on painting at home. All paints, brushes and materials are included. Our advice is to wear old clothing but gloves and plastic aprons are available. Saturday 17 May 2025 10am - 4pm with Stuart Garfoot This workshop takes place at: Hummersknott Academy Edinburgh Drive Darlington DL3 8AR All materials provided. Lunch and refreshments are included.
