Practical tuition and discussion, suitable for all abilities
Join me for relaxed, small-group painting workshops suitable for beginners and those with some experience.
Each workshop combines practical tuition and discussion with inspiration from art history. I’ll help you look closely, explore colour and brushwork, and build confidence in your own way of painting, with individual guidance throughout.
Workshops are run in a variety of locations across Berkshire and Oxfordshire - please see below for details of upcoming.
Come along to develop your skills, try something new and enjoy a morning dedicated to painting. Spaces are limited to keep the groups small.
Portrait:
