Newburgh Priory Art Retreats Christmas Edition
We are excited to welcome back for 2024 the Christmas edition of Newburgh Priory Art Retreats.
On this one day workshop lead by Yorkshire based artist Sue Clayton, you'll be creating art work using gold and metal leaf and exploring gold leaf within the context of painting and 3D form.
We'll be looking at images of moon gazing hares and flocks of cranes flying against a golden sunset sky as inspiration, with source material.
To explore gold leaf on an object, you'll practice by making and taking home two hanging decorations for a Christmas wreath or Christmas tree.
The day will run as follows:
10-1pm: Art tutoring
1-1.45pm: Hot lunch with wine
1.45- 4pm: Art tutoring
4.00pm: Tour of the house (optional)
Access to the grounds and Long Gallery ruins throughout the day.
Places are limited and booking in advance is essential.
Retreat ticket holders will benefit from a 10% discount on their Christmas tree purchase.
If you are interested in learning a new skill or improving your technique in a relaxed and informal setting, join Sue and Alice for this one off event.
Price: £85.00 includes workshop, lunch, refreshments and tour
Date: 3rd December 10am-4pm
