Painting for Beginners - NEW!
Tutor: Claire Harrison
This painting workshop will concentrate on acrylic, as this medium is perfect for beginners. Tutor Claire will demonstrate how to use the paint and will teach core skills such as tone, contrast, colour theory and observation. As Claire likes to concentrate on developing each individual’s skill, it will be left to the students to each choose their own subject matter.
