About the Event
Join me for this beginners class, learning how to paint traditional ‘knobstick’ roses. This Northern style is different to my other classes, which focus on the Braunston style. You’ll be working on a panel, 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!)
- Knobstick 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 painting, to admire for years to come. If there’s something you would like to paint instead of a panel, please let me know and bring it along with you.
