Find your creative voice with Helen
Join The Print Retreat in the foothills of the Black Mountains
Helen Arthur and Adrienne Craddock invite you to immerse yourself in a day of traditional printmaking, good food and quiet creative restoration.
Join us on Saturday 4 July, 10am to 5pm, at ‘Gatherings with Heart’, Ruthlands Farm, HR2 0EB, where your hosts Imogen and James will welcome you and provide refreshments and a nourishing lunch.
Workshops will take place in a beautifully restored traditional stone barn with breaks so you can enjoy the stunning landscape.
With a focus on rich colour, gesture and texture, Helen paints remote spaces under big skies or tangled, semi-wild gardens and hedgerows.
Her experimental style is grounded by a love for being outside, experiencing first hand the elemental effects of light and weather on the Welsh borders countryside where she lives.
