SOLD

Additional date will be scheduled.

This fun 1-day workshop is a beginners guide to painting for people keen to paint but not sure where to start. Using Acrylics as our medium I will guide you through the basics of what makes for a successful painting using a variety of tools and approaches. Acrylic paint is a forgiving and user-friendly medium that provides a solid foundation for painting in other media.

Using the landscape as a reference, I will demonstrate a range of painting methods, including underpainting, impasto and the use of textural effects to create depth and atmosphere. I will also cover basics such as brush handling, palette knife techniques, composition, colour-mixing, tone and perspective.

Experience: The workshop is aimed at beginners and early stage painters, although may suit more seasoned painters who are new to Acrylics or want to loosen up.

What will be covered:

  • Using different tools, surfaces and equipment

  • Understanding composition and perspective

  • Colour-mixing to create atmosphere

  • Using tone [light & shade] to create impact

  • Creating texture and depth

Where: The Art House, Totnes Rd, South Brent, Devon TQ10 9BP. Free on-site parking [space permitting].

In an Nutshell:

  • One full day of tuition (10am-4.30pm)

  • Maximum 6 participants

  • Free-flowing refreshments

  • Friendly, relaxed and informal environment

  • Price includes materials & equipment **

** Materials include use of student grade paints and acrylic paper - if you wish to use an alternative surface such as canvas or your own paints please bring these with you.

Payment options are available at checkout which include Klarna and Clearpay.
