The Creative Arts Club – Art for All | 2. Make an Illuminated Letter: Egg Tempera and Gouache Paint

Part 2: Making and painting with Egg Tempera; painting with gouache on paper and wood.

ALL MATERIALS INCLUDED – NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED

Join artist Sarah Wetherall for this month’s class in which you will learn to make your own egg tempera paint which you can then use to complete your illuminated letter design. Tubes of beautiful gouache paint (beloved of designers for its colour saturation and flatness) will also be available for you to use. This completes the specially designed and gilded artwork from the first class in February.

You can book this as a stand-alone class, so it is not necessary to have attended the first class in February. However, we recommend booking both so that you can have the full experience of creating a complete gilded, painted illuminated letter on the specially prepared wooden tile.

Please bring an apron with you to this class.

About the Artist/Workshop Leader:

The session will be run by Sarah Wetherall, a local artist whose range is broad – from murals to miniatures she has painted in a variety of media and styles. Sarah is an experienced art tutor who ran classes at nearby Dulwich Picture Gallery for many years.
