This workshop is designed to give confidence and is suitable for beginner & refresher oil painters.

Learn valuable techniques to help you simplify a scene and respond quickly, yet accurately with a focus on mixing colours from a limited palette.

Learn to paint more freely within a shorter space of time, mimicking the effect and drama of painting outdoors. Gain confidence and skills to paint landscapes/ seascapes from within a studio in the fast and loose ‘plein air’ style. Improve your colour mixing and application of oil paint, reacting more instinctively to create lively and fresh landscape paintings.

Learn to mix natural colours for sky, clouds, greens and water areas. Tips on how to compose your painting and capture impressions of trees and figures within a scene will be covered.

You will learn how to prepare a tint for a canvas and where to start!
