Embroidery Artist Karl Macrae enjoys running workshops and generously sharing his technique with participants, to create a personal unique original artwork. 

 

He’ll skilfully guide you through the process and provides all materials needed to make your own framed piece of art.  The content of workshops can vary and previous sessions have included making a colourful rainbow Bothy with a stitched word of choice, ensuring a personal touch.

Your opportunity to work with vintage processes to create handmade images on art paper, working at a pace that allows a deeper connection with every photo.

 

Working with both digital and analogue camera formats you will produce handmade prints without the distractions of today’s forever-changing technology.

 

Bookings will be available as soon as the world becomes a safer place, however, online demonstrations at a day and time to suit you are available for the inquisitive or even as a possible taster of future in person workshops.

 

2hr online taster demo session: £60​

Jacquie Clark occasionally runs clay workshops from her garden studio near Auchterarder, offering individual and small group sessions, for a unique learning experience to suit individual needs and experience.

​

Workshops include an Introduction to Wheel Throwing, including a short demonstration on throwing a basic cylinder, before throwing a few pots of your own. Follow up sessions can also be arranged. An Introduction to Sculpture is an alternative workshop learning basic techniques of manipulating the clay by hand. 

 

Further information and enquiries can be made on Jacquie's website.

A truly inspiring experience where you'll learn how to create you own original vintage photographic plate, an image made with a layer of silver exposed onto a medium such as glass or aluminium.

 

The alchemy involved is poured onto the medium and then only works whilst it’s still wet, hence the term ‘wet plate’.

 

For now, the full workshop is not available, as it is an in-person experience, but an online ‘taster’ session is available (bookings made for an in-person session can be finalised once restrictions allow).
