Painting Studio Weekend

Start: 17th August 2012 at 6:00pm
End: 19th August 2012 at 2:00pm
Tutor: Lynne Gibson

 

This is an opportunity for painters of all abilities to be guided through their own project by a highly experienced artist and tutor. The weekend offers a supportive and stimulating environment where you can learn new techniques, experiment with style and share ideas. Tuition is tailored to your individual approach and needs, but could cover, for example, composing a painting, light and shade, choosing paints and using colour, glazes and impasto techniques. Come with a small painting project in mind, some sketches, photos, items, etc. and a good selection of materials. You will leave with new skills and renewed inspiration!
