If you love a bit of bling and are inspired by the art of Gustav Klimt, these two weekends in Sept/Oct might be just for you. You don't have to have art experience as this is a highly structured and guided course. It's also great for experienced artists as there will be a lot of potential for creativity in developing a work. You bring two gel pens and I'll provide you with all the other materials you'll need to leave the course with an impressive art work.
