Paint In The Perry - Hokusai

Join us for a delightful evening of creativity at Perry Hill Pub’s "Paint in the Perry" event on April 30th, from 7 PM to 9 PM. Express your artistic side while sipping on refreshing drinks, guided by the talented artist Jess DSO. Immerse yourself in the captivating world of the Edo period and explore the style of the famous Japanese artist Hokusai.

Jess will guide you step by step, revealing the secrets behind creating a stunning wave inspired by the style of Hokusai. We’ll use Under the Wave off Kanagawa, Hokusai’s famous woodblock print featuring a massive wave about to crash onto three fishing boats, with Mount Fuji in the background, as our reference. Together, we’ll explore what makes a woodblock print, a common art form during the Edo period, and learn how to incorporate these elements into your own work. By the end of the class, you'll have a finished portrait to cherish and valuable painting skills to take with you. No prior experience is required—this class is perfect for beginners and anyone looking to enhance their artistic abilities.

Connect with fellow art enthusiasts in a relaxed pub setting, and let your creativity flow. It's a perfect blend of art, drinks, and good company. Reserve your spot now for a night of fun and expression!

Remember, each last Wednesday of the month, we'll explore different painting themes, ensuring a unique and enjoyable experience for all participants.
