Our ten week drawing course is designed to teach the basics of drawing, starting with simple line drawings then graduating to more complex techniques & skills such as shading, perspective and creating different textures. We use a range of mediums from pencils, charcoal to pastels so by the end of the course, you will have gained the skills and techniques needed to execute, even the most complex drawings. All materials are included in our drawing course.
Our ten week oil painting course is our most popular here at the studio and is designed for both beginners and advanced students. For the first 3-4 weeks, most students choose to follow our class painting, although you are free to paint your own painting, if you prefer.
At our first class, we all choose a painting we would like to paint together, then I give step by step instructions on how to create this masterpiece by showing you on my own painting and also helping you with yours, while also explaining the different colours, techniques and mediums used in oil painting. After many years of teaching, I have found this to be the best way to organise a class, as for students who have never painted before, it is much less daunting when the teacher is showing you and for those more experienced, it is an easy and relaxed way to re-introduce yourself to a painting course. Then for the remainder of 6-7 weeks, students choose their own paintings to work on, with as much or as little instruction as you want.
For those who like a different, cleaner medium to work in, I also offer a ten week acrylic painting course. It takes the same format as our oil painting course, see above, in that for the first 3-4 weeks, we do a class painting, with step by step instructions and explanations on the different colours, techniques etc. for acrylic painting. Then students can choose their own paintings for the remainder of the course.
