Explore how a found image can provide a rich source of inspiration and a starting point for creating your own original painting.
This one-day workshop will begin looking at how Francis Bacon and Peter Doig used other people’s images in their work. Having brought in your own image to use, we will look at ways to draw out the elements of the image that pique your interest. You will then develop your painting, distilling the essence of your found image, removing superfluous detail and adding your own creativity and vision.
