My new workshops for 2026 are now live and available to book. If you don't see a date that suits you, please sign up to my mailing list to be notified when the next dates become available - please sign up here
I am excited to offer small, intimate workshops for a maximum of 12 students at the modern and comfortable Beacon Hub in Portishead. These workshops will cover a variety of topics, including sunset seascapes, turquoise waves, and other seascape styles. The one-day workshops will provide all necessary art materials, such as easels, premium paper, and high-quality pastels.
For those seeking a more in-depth experience, I am also offering a few two-day workshops and a single three-day workshop. These extended sessions will delve into more detailed paintings, focusing on techniques such as creating bokeh (out of focus effect) and capturing fine details for a realistic finish. These longer workshops are ideal for experienced artists looking to refine their pastel skills, previous attendees seeking the next challenge, or individuals travelling from further afield who want a longer stay and more teaching time.
For the 1, 2 and 3 day workshops, I'll be regularly releasing dates throughout the year - if you want to be the first to find out please sign up to my workshop mailing list

In addition to the Beacon Hub workshops, I will be hosting small, bespoke workshops in my home studio for private group events. These sessions are perfect for small groups of friends (4 or 5 people) looking for a unique activity, such as a hen or stag do, or a birthday party (adults only). Dates are flexible to fit your schedule, and the experience can include celebratory drinks like prosecco or mermaid gin and tonics. If you are interested in learning more about these personalised sessions, please contact me directly at michelle.lucking@hotmail.co.uk.
