Join a friendly class and to learn painting and drawing skills under professional guidance
Class sizes are limited to allow individuals to be supported at their own pace. In addition to this, Julie delivers demonstrations and tutorials in foundational art techniques and theory – all designed to help you develop confidence and range as an artist.
(Please note, we cannot accommodate oil painting at the centre, due to insurance policies).
Flexible and Adaptive Learning
One of the standout features of this course is its flexibility. While it’s structured to guide you step-by-step—from choosing the right materials to acrylic paintings with confidence—the content remains adaptable to suit the interests and aspirations of each cohort of students. This ensures the learning process is both engaging and relevant, allowing artists of all levels to flourish. This is a supportive and friendly atmosphere where you can learn at your own pace and experiment with ideas under professional guidance.
Materials
You will be expected to bring your own kit to the class – a recommended materials list will be issued to students before the course starts, and advice on buying brushes, paints, pencils, canvas etc is also on hand.
The course fee includes some basic materials such as surfaces to paint or draw on and different mediums to try for yourselves.
Tea and coffee provided each week (and maybe even some biscuits).
Why Choose This Course?
