SUMMARY:Formal Gardens Watercolour Workshops at Blenheim Palace
DESCRIPTION:Formal Gardens Watercolour Workshops\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Formal Gardens Watercolour Workshops at Blenheim Palace\n\n\n\nBlenheim Palace is delighted to be hosting a series of exclusive watercolour workshops led by acclaimed Woodstock artist Rod Craig.  \n\n\n\nSet against the breathtaking backdrop of the Gardens\, these creative sessions will be taking place once a month from May until September.  \n\n\n\nEach workshop begins at the Stables Café before moving into the heart of the Formal Gardens\, where centuries of landscape artistry provide endless inspiration for artists of all levels. \n\n\n\nAbout the Artist \n\n\n\nRod Craig lives and works in Woodstock – his walks in the Parkland each morning are a constant source of inspiration for the landscape paintings that he is best known for. He has worked in collections in the UK\, Germany and New York and exhibits regularly with galleries and art fairs. \n\n\n\n“Watercolour painting is a perfect medium for capturing the energy and the drama of the landscape. I love its vibrancy and fluidity. Whilst it is extremely challenging\, it is completely addictive as no other medium offers the same degree of spontaneity. Most of my work is inspired by memories\, music and the elements of the landscape.” Rod Craig 2026.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\n£35.00 per person \n\n\n\n£30.00 for Pass holders \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nSaturday 25 July\, Saturday 22 August and Saturday 19 September 2026 \n\n\n\nFrom 11.00am to 3.30pm \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nStables Café \n\n\n\nGood to know: \n\n\n\nPlease note that food and drink is not provided and you are to bring your own painting equipment.
