Beginners Canal Art Roses at Preston Brook

Watch the boats drift by at Heatherfield Heritage. Join me canal side, for this beginners class, learning how to paint in the traditional 'Roses and Castles'. You’ll be working on a placemat and coaster, using the same enamel paints used to decorate the boats themselves. 

In this workshop we'll cover a wee bit of history as well as; 

- development of the art, 

- what kit you need (and how to treat it right!) 

- Braunston style roses and daisies 

I'll guide you through each step, provide all materials and share hints and tips along the way. You'll take home a beautiful placemat and matching coaster. If there’s something you would like to paint instead of a placemat and coaster, please bring it along with you.
