Monday Oil Painting Class

An open, practical course in oil painting for all levels. Through demonstrations, guided exercises and individual projects you will explore colour, light and composition and how they bring a painting to life.

Working from still life, landscape, portrait or your own subjects, you will develop at your own pace and build confidence in a friendly, supportive environment.

Mondays 18:30 to 21:00

11/01 to 22/03, except 15/02
