This 8 week introductory painting course aims to encourage your confidence in the use of this exciting medium. You will have both guidance and the freedom to develop your own interests in painting. You will be given exercises that encourage experimentation with composition, observation, gesture, scale and colour in order to begin to develop your own painting vocabulary. You will also learn about practical elements of using certain paints, brushes, surfaces, maintenance of tools and economy of materials. Your tutors will introduce you to representational and abstract approaches to the medium.
This course is delivered in two four week sections, by two tutors; offering you a broader scope and differing approaches to painting.
This course is open to adults 18+ regardless of experience. Materials are provided, but please feel free to bring any materials of your own if you want to. Please wear clothes you are happy to get paint on!
