A very different Painting Opportunity - for artists with some experience or students who have previously attended one of our courses.
You can paint in acrylics, oils or mixed media.
We want to bring out the ARTIST IN YOU.
So the courses are not 'prescriptive' but designed
to help you learn to paint.
"This was great, professional teaching, professional
products
and information I have never got from reading millions
of 'How To' art books. Thanks!" Rob said
"Caroline is able to inspire, educate and make you relax" is what David said after an exciting weekend painting.
If you feel you are not a beginner but an Improver and would like to learn some more techniques - perhaps even contemporary or abstract painting, then this is the course for you.
THIS IS A TOTALLY INDULGENT WEEKEND AND Caroline is very generous and lets you explore, acrylics, oils, oil sticks and mixed media on this weekend.
You also paint on one of our very exclusive hand made canvases. (four times primed cotton canvas and Italian hard wood stretchers). Made by our own on-site carpenter your canvas can be up to size 40" (100cm).
You will find a HUGE difference in using our hand made canvases. The paint quality is much enhanced and the quality of the canvases are those expected by top galleries.
THIS IS A VERY SPECIAL PAINTING WEEKEND. For artists with some experience and students who want to be more expressive and exploratory - using the very best materials.
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 course, the best time you could have!
Dates/Prices (£250) includes: 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.
