Service Description
Cityscapes Inspired by the Impressionists Holiday Art Workshop for Ages 8+ Step into the vibrant world of the Impressionists in this two-day holiday workshop designed for children aged 8 and up. Budding artists will take inspiration from the River Thames and its iconic bridges and landmarks, learning how to capture atmosphere, light, and movement in the style of Monet & Turner, and other impressionist painters. We’ll begin by exploring how Impressionist artists revolutionised painting—using bold brushwork, unexpected colour combinations, and a focus on mood over detail. Students will then create their own impressionist cityscape using layered colour and expressive mark-making, transforming familiar London scenes into glowing works of art. What to Expect Over two sessions, students will: - Study key Impressionist paintings, focusing on colour blending, brushwork, and capturing light. - Sketch views of the Thames, bridges, or imagined landmarks using soft lines and simple shapes. - Learn how to build up colour in layers to create depth, movement, and atmosphere. - Experiment with colour mixing to represent shifting light and shadow. - Complete a final cityscape painting full of energy, colour, and expressive style. Perfect for children who enjoy expressive painting, city scenes, and experimenting with colour in new ways. Skill Level Tailored for ages 8+, with guidance to suit individual abilities. Children under 8 are welcome to enquire—we’re happy to advise on suitability. What to Bring - A nut-free snack and a bottle of water - Old clothes or an apron – things might get splashy! Session Schedule This is a two-day course, held on consecutive days during the school holidays. Class sizes are small to allow for plenty of one-on-one guidance. Early booking is recommended.
