About

Following on from the session in October and inspired by the recent exhibition 'Hockney and Piero: A Longer Look', join us for a repeat workshop, for those who didn't attend (or who would like to attend again). Drawing on the work of Italian Renaissance painter, Piero della Francesca, whose paintings were characterised by their use of geometric forms and perspective, this workshop will give you the opportunity to make your own shape compositions and configurations. 

All experience levels welcome.  

Please meet in Gallery C at least 5 minutes before the session starts. Materials will be provided.
