Thanks for adding: Proceed to Checkout Continue browsing X Print this page WATERCOLOUR PORTRAITS WITH ARCHIBALD WINNER CHERRY HOOD CHERRY HOOD IS RENOWNED FOR HER UNIQUE LARGE-scale works derived from photographs. Characterised by translucent watery marks, her haunting images reflect emotional detachment but have an exaggerated captivating presence. The huge eyed faces follow you around, drinking you in, daring you look away, always drawing you back for one more glimpse. CHERRY HAS WON MAJOR ART AWARDS, including Australia’s ARCHIBALD PRIZE AND HER WORKS CAN BE SEEN IN MAJOR GALLERIES. Join CHERRY IN THIS 3 DAY WORKSHOP WHERE SHE WILL SHARE WITH YOU HER SPECIAL TECHNIQUES TO CREATE YOUR VERY OWN LARGE SCALE WATERCOLOUR PAINTING OF A FACE. This workshop is not about creating a likeness of someone – it’s all about creating a amazing, unique painting using the wonderful medium of WATERCOLOUR. What will I learn? Working from your own photograph of a face, and with step by step demonstrations from CHERRY, you will be guided on how to: • scale-up the image without losing the proportions • use large brushes and watery paint to create a unique style of painting • there is the option to use a projector to transfer the image onto paper instead of drawing using her scale up techniques. CHERRY ENCOURAGES HER STUDENTS TO “really go for it”, using loose painting, pouring and even their hands, so that the end result is like nothing they’ve ever painted before.

This consists of a main teaching space, a gallery/teaching space and a studio rental hire space. It is conveniently located just north of the CBD, near the iconic Breakfast Creek Hotel and the beautiful BRISBANE River. The BRISBANE Painting Classes Art Studio is on street level (very important when you are working on larger pieces or carrying heavy art materials), with soaring 5-metre ceilings and an enormous roller door to let in plenty of light and ventilation. The ‘vibe’ of the building is always buzzing with creativity, encouragement and energy as our art studio space has developed into an arts precinct with photographers, graphic designers and web developers also working from the Nariel Street building. Student and Tutor Gallery Space We invite our past/present students, and tutors to display some of their work at our art studio. This is a wonderfully inspiring backdrop for everyone who wishes to improve their creative art skills, plus it provides exposure for emerging artists when we meet with commercial art gallery owners and members of the public who visit the art studio from time to time. Public Transport Getting Here By Car The studio is a 10 min drive from the city at the beginning of Sandgate Rd on the corner of Sandgate Rd and Nariel Street, Albion. We are easily accessible from the Inner City Bypass, Clem 7 and Legacy Way tunnels. Parking There is private off-street parking at the rear of the building – you will see the gates leading into a triangular, grassed area on the corner of Nariel St and Sandgate Rd. Parking spaces are readily available outside of business hours. However, if you are attending a weekday class or workshop, parking can be limited. If the carpark is full, paid parking is also available in the surrounding streets. Alternative modes of transport are recommended on weekdays until 5pm. Other Information Getting Here By Public Transport The closest bus stop is Stop 15 on Sandgate Rd at Yowoggera Park and is about a 5 minute walk from the studio.
