ART WORKSHOP FOR GROWNUPS

Feeling Blue? Seeing Red? Wanna Go Green?


Life is colour, and it is colour that reveals life to us. The Pomegranate Workshop presents Coloured Views by renowned artist Renu Iyer: a workshop that seeks to explore life – its various hues and shades – using colours that depict moods and give art its flavour.

Coloured Views is a 2-day workshop where participants can discover how colours help create evocative art, reveal character and enable a deeper understanding of personality. Under the guidance of our expert faculty, participants can use colours to depict themes and moods, portray emotions, and present feelings through their art. The workshop promises exciting experiments with different materials, painting and collage-making exercises – and a journey through the entire landscape of human emotions. Technique and self-expression combine to transform the way you view art – and yourself.

This workshop is open to all, irrespective of skill level or experience. Don’t be yellow!

Renu Iyer is a visual artist who studied Fine Arts at LS Raheja, Mumbai and MS University, Baroda. She has participated in many exhibitions -- most notably the Olympic Fine Arts (OFA) exhibition in 2008 in Beijing. She has been combining art and storytelling in workshops for children over the last few years, and has conducted numerous workshops for The Pomegranate Workshop.

Renu’s approach involves exploring art in different ways to arrive at fundamental art concepts – from line and form to aspects of colour. Her sessions combine self expression and technique and allow the participants to explore the basics of composition through an integrated step-by-step approach that involves observation, simple exercises and discussion.
