Mother’s Day Workshop

Ink & Watercolour Workshop – A Mother's Day Treat

Celebrate Mother's Day with a creative experience to share.

Join artist Robyn Caley for a relaxed and welcoming ink and watercolour workshop at The Arc, Bedford - a chance to slow down, enjoy some time together and create something truly personal.

Whether you treat your mum to a workshop of her own, or come along together and make it a special shared day, you'll leave with a meaningful piece of art and a lovely memory to match.

With step-by-step guidance, no previous experience is needed.

Choose Your Session

The workshops is split into 2 complementary sessions. You can book one, or enjoy the full experience by joining both - with 10% off if you join both sessions.

Morning Session - Drawing (Pencil & Ink Pen)

Learn how to translate a photograph onto paper to create a realistic drawing of the front elevation of a building you love, in pencil and ink pen.
Send Robyn a photo of your chosen building and she will prepare it and print it our for you - or choose from a selection of images provided on the day.  This session focuses on line, structure and confidence in drawing.

Afternoon Session - Watercolour Painting

Paint a prepared drawing using watercolours, learning colour mixing and simple techniques to bring your building portrait to life. You'll go home with a finished, hand-painted artwork.

Join Both Sessions - The Full Experience

Create your own A5 ink and watercolour portrait of a favourite building from start to finish - a beautiful keepsake and a truly satisfying creative day.
