Oil painting: focus on light

- Use tone and colour-tone in painting with increased sensitivity and pleasure.

- Find inspiration from a variety of artistic sources for further painting.

(James Bland, Seurat, Richter, Caravaggio, Hitchcock).

- Use oil paint to maintain freshness and luminosity through dry and wet methods.

Basic materials for the course are provided. Please bring along 2 glass jars with lids, an A4 sketchbook and, for the last session you may wish to bring a canvas to paint on, but this is not essential.

- Slide shows, books, practical demos, group & individual advice,
- Final session, students will make a single day long painting based on their favoured approach so they may wish to research suggested artists & concepts as the course develops.
