Course programme

Course Content:
The aim of the course is to enable you to make landscape paintings from your drawings and colour studies. You will initially work from the local landscape exploring drawing strategies to gather information. Alongside drawings you will also make colour studies through using dry and painted colour.

You will then develop compositions back in the studio working from your drawings and colour studies. You will have the opportunity to explore the application of paint and approaches in the interpretation of the landscape.

You will also be advised on palette management, mixing colours and working on different supports and grounds. You can work with watercolours, acrylics or oil paints and the tutor will discuss their various merits.

You will be shown examples of artists’ landscape work and discuss approaches they have used in the creation of their paintings.
You will show and discuss your work within a group critique at the end of each task.

The course will be delivered through short introductory discussions, demonstrations and individual tuition and support.
