This course is based on one of my paintings which students will paint using g acrylics.

This course is suitable for both beginners and more advanced students and with a relaxed no pressure atmosphere should be enjoyable for all.
All materials are provided and students will be given notes to remind them of all the important points covered

The only thing I ask you to bring is an old cloth to work on and wear old clothes.

This course is will be looking at the techniques and methods of using water soluble oil paints. Oil painting has been around for many centuries and has stood the test of time but if you are like me you will have a complete aversion to the smell of spirit based solvents.  We will be using the Windsor & Newton Artisan range which are a water soluble formulation of this traditional medium.

With these paints there is no need for spirit based solvents but just plain old tap water. They are lovely to paint with and when you get paint on your canvas the only thing one can smell is the lovely aroma of linseed oil!

The days painting will be based on one of my paintings which will be designed to complete in a single day. Students will be supplied with a drawing which they can either copy or trace.

During the day students will be given step-by-step demonstrations of each stage of painting this picture, written notes and personal tuition.
