If you’ve had hits and misses with sourdough, this workshop is for you. I’ve mastered the art of sourdough and can’t wait to share this process. My starter ‘Bread Sheeran’ delivers hit after hit – helping you elevate your bread game.
Between folding and rising, you’ll have time to create a mixed-media masterpiece too. I will guide you through with step-by-step guidance and introductions to different art techniques.
Join me for a truly mindful and relaxing day, combining two of my passions.
Enjoy a delicious lunch – including plenty of sourdough to taste!
The retreat is set in a beautiful studio in Kennedy Town as I don’t have an oven in my studio. It’s a very inspiring place and I can’t wait to host this one-day workshop there.
You Will Take Home:
- Your very own ‘Bread Sheeran’ starter
- A Chroma apron
- A loaf to take home and bake
- A mixed-media memory painting
About Eleanor
Eleanor McColl is a multi-disciplinary artist, based in Hong Kong. She studied Fine Art at U.W.E Bristol, in England and came to Hong Kong in 1999 to pursue her career as an artist and art educator.
McColl’s work is rooted in place with a focus on the urban environment. Her work draws the eye to the often unnoticed details of the city, casting the “shadows on the wall” of the modern human condition: often solitary, hardworking and hardwearing. Through manipulation of focus, her work explores the delicate points of contact in the otherwise ceaseless blur of the everyday anonymous citizen.
Drawn to the dramatic palate of dilapidation, refurbishment and renewal, her cityscapes explore the interface between Hong Kong’s unique verticality and it’s impact on its people.
