This standalone workshop will be led by Rachel Sutherland SSBA. To find out more about Rachel please visit her website http://www.rachelsutherlandpaintings.com

By looking through her window to understand Redpath’s use of planes in the construction of the composition, we will compose our own landscape using her unique technique, colour palette and perspective. The lecturer will guide on this, using Redpath’s painting and our own imaginations. You can bring along inspirational images of landscapes that you would like to work with if you prefer.
