Making our mark in a unique and interesting way is at the core of any artists practice. It is a term used to describe the different lines, patterns and textures possible in the creative process and applies to any art material on any support.
No matter what your skill as an artist, or would be artist, one can always embrace a more creative approach through play and experimentation. In this workshop we will explore different mark making ideas in a loose, expressive and spontaneous way by tapping, dotting, dabbing, dashing, splattering, rolling and printing and a lot more, with non-traditional mark making tools and materials. Finally, we will construct simple artists’ books with our endeavours.

Venue
Windsor Hotel
Duration
5 hours
Three days
Participants will be encouraged to let go of old habits and experiences and find new ways of expressing themselves through the use of materials and different approaches to making images. This is not a theme-based workshop but rather an experience for each participant to gain access to the subject matter they would like to work with – figurative or nonfigurative. The course is a process-based experience rather than product-focused (although end-products will be discussed and do pop up). Exchange of ideas and skills will be encouraged creating an interactive, creative work-space.
Jill has been an active participant in the Thupelo Workshop from its inception, a founder member of the Greatmore Studios in Cape Town, and chairperson of the Association for Visual Arts
The course is open to anyone interested in image-making, with or without previous experience. Further information will be sent to participants.
Tickets includes a light lunch.
