Hands-on War Paint: Drawing with wire

During this workshop, we’ll be examining ‘FV432 with Cymbeline radar, AE Bty, Sanski Most’ (1996) by J Hugh L Beattie, one of the paintings featured in our War Paint exhibition. We’ll begin with a discussion about the painting, exploring the presentation of the artwork, its historical and political context, the use of wire within warfare and an introduction into drawing with wire. We’ll then use wire as a drawing medium to create a continuous line drawing inspired by the wire seen in Beattie’s painting. All levels are welcome. Materials will be provided. The workshop runs from 7pm to 8.30p
