Paint Like The Masters

Throughout 2020 as part of our normal all media class we will explore the styles of various artists from around the world who have changed the way we see art. We will examine the techniques which have made these artists so admired or at least controversial, and will experiment with incorporating them into our own paintings. The range of artists will be very wide covering both realism and more adventurous styles. We will examine two or three artists each term beginning with Degas one of the founders of impressionism.

Come along; experiment with different techniques and maybe find some new ways of painting.

What do I bring? Bring along your own paints/pastels/pencils, brushes and paper/canvas (new or unfinished project) – whatever materials you have.

Our tutor is the very talented Gail Shawyer who has a wealth of knowledge and the teaching skills to help both beginners and more experienced artists create some very satisfying art.
