This session is a great taster for Liz’s online ‘Abstraction’ series of webinars. It doesn’t matter at what point you start from, this course will give you the chance to develop your existing works in-depth. Using mixed media approaches, we will explore our own image making by pushing the possibilities to their limits.

Taught by

Liz Hough’s paintings offer a vivid exploration of seasonal moments, drawing the viewer into intimate narratives of place and memory. Each painting is carefully selected to convey time spent in both summer and winter, where the artist’s use of colour and mixed media brings life to the black-and-white sketches she creates en plein air.

What our students say

There was a lot more in the course than expected. Liz’s demonstration broke down any sense of preciousness. Her openness, instinct, love of materials and creative ‘play’ are terrifically inspiring to let go and explore.
