Take a look at our next crop of short courses, available to anyone aged 18+ in the County Durham area who experiences mental ill health.

Watercolours with Fineliners – FULL
19, 26 September, 10, 17, 24 October
10am – 12pm
£3
This technique is sometimes known as ‘line and wash’. It is quite a delicate technique which does not rely heavily upon drawing skills, but more upon the beautiful and sometimes surprising effects that the addition of loosely applied watercolour can have upon your line drawing. Each week we will start the class with a demonstration, and a few tips on the techniques of watercolour painting.

Managing Anxiety and Low Mood – FULL
19, 26 September, 3, 10, 17, 24 October
10am – 12pm
Free
This course is about anxiety and low mood and how both can have an impact on our daily lives. The course aims to give you self-help strategies to help you manage your anxiety or low mood yourself, building up your confidence and self-esteem and giving you the tools to manage your life in a more positive way.

Torn – FULL
19, 26 September, 10, 17, 24 October
1.30 – 3.30pm
£3
This is a new course based upon a very well known method of producing images using torn bits of different patterned papers to fill in shapes, add texture and different tones to your work.
