Overview: This course is designed to support learners in developing confidence and creativity through the exploration of mixed media techniques with an illustrative focus. Combining materials such as watercolour, ink, collage, and drawing media, participants will experiment with layered approaches to create expressive and dynamic artwork.
Delivered within a structured and supportive environment, the course introduces key principles of composition, texture, and visual storytelling. Tutor-led activities encourage learners to take creative risks, build technical skills, and develop their own distinctive artistic style.
Course level and content: Suitable for beginners and those with more experience, this course places emphasis on personal expression and creative confidence. By the end of the course, learners will have produced a range of mixed media pieces and gained a greater sense of assurance in their artistic decision-making and individual approach.

ENGAGING WITH YOUR PERSONAL LEARNING RECORD (PLR) PAPERWORK
All community learning courses require learners to engage with Personal Learning Record (PLR) paperwork. At the beginning of the course, you will be supported in setting personal learning aims, which will guide your development over the duration of the programme. Your tutor will assess your progress at key points—at the start, mid-point, and conclusion of the course—providing written feedback to help document your learning and achievements.
