If the weather is bad, the painting session will be held in the Mote Park Learning Space.

Max: 12 people
Suitable for ages 18+
Please wear suitable footwear and appropriate clothing for the weather conditions on the day.
About Cas Holmes
Cas is an artist and writer of Romani descent and is interested in the liminal, ‘in between’ spaces connecting land, people and place. Trained in fine art, her work combines mixed media with found materials and stitch, and is best described as ‘painting with cloth’.
After receiving a fine arts degree at Maidstone College of Art (UCA) further studies in textile and paper arts in Japan followed by research in India, have led to her adaptation of techniques and distinctive layering of found paper and cloth with paste, paint, and stitch as a means to process her ideas.
Cas’s publications include ‘Soulful Stitch’, co-authored with Deena Beverley, ‘Embroidering the Everyday’ and ‘Textile Landscape’.
Cas is a commissioned artist and has exhibited her work around the country.
