Bring your friends along to a fun relaxed evening of paint and portraiture. Sip on a wine and let your creativity take you into the weekend. No prior experience or knowledge required.

The workshop has been designed to coincide with Tauranga Art Gallery's current Te Papa touring exhibition, Rita Angus New Zealand Modernist | He Ringatoi Hou O Aotearoa. We invite skilled portrait artist Lindsey Horne to share her admiration for Rita Angus and share her knowledge and skills in the art of portrait painting.

If you can't make the Canvas & Wine workshop you could also join the next Creative Sunday Workshop at Toi Tauranga, where Lindsey will be offering some tips and tricks to creating your own painted portrait. For more details of this event, The Art of Portraiture with Lindsey Horne, click here.

Lindsey Horne is an artist and curator based in Tauranga, most recently she has curated and exhibited in Artists on Artists - a group portrait exhibition where each artist is the subject of another artist's work, like links in a chain. She has a background in both fine art and neuroscience and practices her art alongside her role as a behavioural researcher. This deep understanding of people and their inner workings informs her portraiture work.
