Saturday 11th October 2025 | 13:30 to 17:00 | Hannah Peschar Sculpture Garden, RH5 5QU

As we start to move into October, the palette of the Sculpture Garden shifts from deep and vibrant greens to burnt sienna and umber tones. Once fresh and juicy leaves become crunchy, dry and move into a state of overwintering. 

This season Surrey Art School founder Ellie Green invites you back to the garden to witness and capture this transformation in motion. Working with autumnal-toned drawing inks, a dip pen and watercolour brush - we'll capture stark silhouettes, crunchy leaves and warm bronzed tones on paper. 

Spending the first half of the afternoon tuning into the Autumnal energy in the Sculpture Garden - we'll collect fallen leaves and take a few mindful snaps to inspire our creative experiments. After a spot of tea and cake, we'll move to creating wet and dry grounds and the chance to play with both dip pen & brush to capture the shapes and textures of the season. You can expect a grounding and experimental workshop with a chance to bring the essence of the garden home with you on the day. 

All materials, refreshments and home-baked cakes are included in this workshop.

Saturday 18th October 2025 | 10:30 to 15:30 | Nower Wood Educational Reserve, KT22 8QA

Combine your interest in Art and the natural world by learning to capture the variety of colours, shapes and textures of woodland fungi using pencils, pastels, watercolours and inks. We’ll begin the day with a walk around the ancient woodland site – hunting for fungi and taking photos to be used as inspiration for drawing and painting. Ellie will then share some beginner-friendly techniques for sketching a wide range of mushroom shapes. She’ll also show you how to make spore prints of some of the fungi collected on our walk. Following this, you’ll learn how to work with inks and watercolours to create some more in depth studies of mushrooms gathered onsite!

You can expect a fun, creative day of artistic experimenting and will go home with your own studies of mushrooms made using a wide range of materials - all of which are provided by Ellie.

Saturday 1st November 2025 | 10:00 to 13:00 | Surrey Art School, RH5 5DL

Join me at my studio for a gloriously Autumnal workshop working with artist-quality watercolours and other magical materials to create pretty watercolour studies of plump pumpkins and gourds of all shapes, sizes and colours!

There will be a playful and experimental energy in first half of the workshop as we play with different brush types and colour combinations. We’ll include a sprinkle of magic as we experiment with brusho - a crystal colour powder that produces some wildly vibrant results!

We’ll pause halfway for a nice cuppa and a slice of cake before choosing one or two of of studies to refine in the second half - using a paper with a bit more texture / tooth for your final paintings.

You can expect a fun workshop, working with fabulous materials & filled with beginner-friendly tips and tricks in this sublimely seasonal class.
