Who this course is for

This course is open to all levels of experience.

Course content

Beginning with drawing on Day 1 we contemplate how these two disciplines cross over and inform one another. During week one you will be exploring some of the formal issues of drawing and painting through observation. Special emphasis is put on looking carefully at tone and mark-making, the translation of tone and line into colour and the role of colour in both painting and drawing.

In the second week you will investigate composition, working from both primary and secondary subject matter, using techniques and ideas to develop personal ideas in painting, using a variety of materials.

Teaching and structure

Your personal development will be encouraged through taught studio sessions, slide talks and regular discussions about ideas and methods.

You can also take this course over two weeks if you would like time extended time to develop your work.
