'ACRYLIC & OIL PAINTING WEEKENDS - WELCOME

Caroline Paints in demonstration and you paint in
oils, learning techniques and composition.

We want to bring out the ARTIST IN YOU.

So the courses are not 'prescriptive' but designed
to help you learn to paint.

"I arrived at the studio totally clueless and I've come away
with so much knowledge. In just 2 days, its quite unbelievable
but I am very keen to learn more. I now look at paintings
in a totally different way and I have joined the arts
club at work"
Grace said

Price is £250 for the weekend without accommodation.
ALL YOUR MATERIALS ARE INCLUDED

 

Your chance to explore the qualities of oil paints and acrylic paints. See which one you like more.

Caroline shows you the professional approach to both mediums. These weekends are just as much fun as the 'Get Creative' and 'The Starter' Courses and the emphasis is on YOU and your style but with the added excitement(!) of using both oils and acrylics.

The Course Programmes are created EXCLUSIVELY by JoeDaisy Studio - designed to give the student the very best course content and teaching. We now note other providers are trying to copy our course content (which is a bit of a cheek!) but they don't have our TEN secret weapons: click

ALL YOUR MATERIALS ARE INCLUDED. Lunch on both days. Accommodation on Saturday night is also included.

THIS IS DIFFERENT - PAINTING IN A PROFESSIONAL ART STUDIO AND ON LOCATION WITH ALL YOUR TOP QUALITY PROFESSIONAL MATERIALS PROVIDED.


BUT! DO NOT BE FRIGHTENED!! Caroline is the nicest, unassuming artist you could find. Everyone in the Studio makes your painting day or weekend, the best time you could have!

Dates/Prices (£285) include 2 days painting with
buffet lunch on both days. Accommodation for Saturday
night with breakfast. ALL your professional materials and refreshments all day
. You take away all your art work of course. PLUS EXCLUSIVE studio written tutorials to take away and Poster size colour wheel.

You decide what you want to paint. We know painting is all about passion and your creativity. So we don't want to teach you to 'paint by numbers' or be 'prescriptive' in any of our courses. So you decide what form interests you. Landscapes, still life, abstracts etc.

BRING YOUR OWN IMAGES OR if you feel confident enough, Caroline will help you compose your own painting.

We can work with the same image for both of the days - so we can have a comparison of acrylic versus oils. YOU CAN BRING YOUR OWN IMAGE.

During the day, there is a coffee machine, tea, herbal drinks, soft drinks, bottled water and wine available - along with nibbles and you are encouraged to make the Studio 'your home' for the weekend i.e take rests whenever you want to, walk around, look at the art books, look at the paintings and prints in the Gallery, sit and chat etc. We want you to feel as if you are at home but with the added bonus of every top quality Professional art material and facility you could desire!
