Create your own floral-inspired mixed media artwork
Come and spend a creative afternoon in my studio during Open Studios Weekend!
In this fun, hands-on workshop, I’ll introduce you to some of the techniques I’ve been using in my latest collection. You’ll create your own floral-inspired mixed media painting while experimenting with collage, stencils, bubble wrap, gold leaf and layers of paint and texture.
This is about experimenting, getting creative and having fun—not creating a perfect copy of my work. You’ll be encouraged to make the piece your own and discover techniques you can continue using in your own art practice.
Limited places
I'm keeping this workshop small, with a maximum of 10 participants, so there's plenty of space to create, experiment and get individual guidance when you need it.
Come spend three hours in the studio, get a little messy, try something new and leave with a piece of art you've made yourself.
The Details
What We'll Be Doing
Over three relaxed hours, we'll explore:
- Collage and layering
- Stencils and mark-making
- Bubble wrap for texture and pattern
- Gold leaf
- Painting techniques for building depth and interest
- Combining different materials and textures
I'll guide you through the process step-by-step, but there will be plenty of room to experiment and follow your own creative instincts.

You'll leave with:
- Your own finished 10" x 10" mixed media painting
- A collection of new techniques to experiment with
- Plenty of inspiration to take into your own art practice

And hopefully a few hours of doing something just for the fun of it!

What is Mixed Media Art?
Mixed media art is all about breaking boundaries and giving you the freedom to experiment.
Instead of sticking to just one material, you can combine paint, collage, ink, textiles, or even found objects to create layered, textured, and dynamic pieces.
It’s an expressive, hands-on way to bring your ideas to life—whether you want to capture emotions, tell a story, or simply play with different techniques.
There are no rules, just endless possibilities for you to explore.
Custom Dates & Private Workshops
