In this 3 hour workshop with photographic artist Catriona Gray, you'll learn in a small group how to make creative and surprising images using light-sensitive paper, photographic chemicals and household products such as toothpaste, masking tape, Marmite, face cream, oil and more! Call it photographic painting, mark-making, goop-wielding, whatever you like! Use paintbrushes, sponges, cloths, rollers, spray bottles or your fingers.

Throughout the class, Catriona will guide you and a small group of fellow participants as you delve into the world of photographic painting and mark-making. Don't worry if you're new to this process—the warm and uplifting teaching style will alleviate any fears and provide you with the support and guidance you need.

The workshop will provide a structured and enjoyable environment where you can explore your creativity and experiment with different materials and techniques.

Along the way, you'll discover the joy of combining photography and painting, unlocking a new realm of artistic expression.

By the end of the workshop, you'll leave with a collection of your own unique creations, each one a testament to your newfound skills and creativity.
