DISCOVER RUSSIA : FAMILY WORKSHOPS

If you book onto any of the workshops with Roz Logan you will really enjoy your 1 1/2 hours, as she is a great educator, instructor, and so relaxed and fun she makes the time just whizz by. She tells me that she’ll be creating individual art works based on the works chosen for the week – using acrylic paint, chalk/oil pastels, tracing paper, pencil and collage – which will also fit together to create a larger group mural work. A-mazing, don’t you think?
