Having proved so popular back in the Spring, an art masterclass is returning to Congresbury where enthusiasts will have the chance to brush up on their painting techniques.

Taking place at Cadbury House on 14 September, Becky Milnor will conduct a live painting workshop where she’ll reveal the secrets that have made her one of the most sought-after nature artists in the country.

Renowned for using gold leaf on her work, Becky will transform a blank canvas into a shimmering image in front of the eyes of those present after which they’ll be able to practice what they’ve just learnt by creating their own picture.

Once the painting has finished, guests will then be served a delicious afternoon tea including glass of fizz, allowing them to sit back and admire the work of Becky as well as that of other guests.

Matilda Burgess, marketing manager at Cadbury House said: “We’re delighted to hold another art masterclass with Becky. The event in April sold out and was really well received by those who came along.

“Becky draws her inspiration from growing up on her family farm in rural Devon with all of her art featuring the countryside and nature. She also loves the glamourous art deco period and is reflected in her work through the use of gold leaf.

“To watch a master at work and then enjoy a delicious afternoon tea in our Marco Pierre White restaurant is a date not to be missed. Marco was an artist when it came to serving food, so it seems appropriate that this event is being held in the Garden Room of his restaurant.

“We’re also going to hold a pre-Christmas art masterclass and will provide more inspiration for those looking for a special present for a loved one.”

The dates for both masterclasses are Saturday 14^th September and Saturday 9^th November.  Each day starts at 10.30am and finishes at 3.30pm.
