A RENOWN TV artist is to put a drop of colour into a painting workshop to be held in the Peterborough area.
The popular Geoff Kersey, who regularly appears as SKY TV’S artist is to give a watercolour workshop as part of the Deepings Arts Festival.
The festival will take place on May 13 in the new Confer- ence Centre at the Deepings School, Park Road, Deeping St James. The workshop is from 10am to 2.30pm with a break for lunch and places are still available.
The cost of attending the painting workshop is £40 and bookings or further details can be obtained by calling 01778 341807 or visiting www. deepingsarts.org.uk.
A festival spokesperson said: “We feel budding artists will be able to learn a lot from Mr Kersey and it will be worthwhile popping along to the workshop.
“Mr Kersey lives and works in the Peak District and has a traditional style of painting.
“He is well regarded for an intuitive use of colour and has a firm grasp of perspective and draftsmanship.
The spokesperson added: “He has also written articles for The Artist and Illustrator, and Paint Magazines. His first book was published in summer 2004. Details are available on his website, www.geoffkersey.co.uk”
