Summer Intensive: Oil Painting a Landscape from an Image

Join us for this 5-day workshop where students will improve their basic knowledge and understanding of oil paint. 

With the help and guidance of our experienced oil painting instructor and through class demonstrations, you will work towards re-creating a landscape oil painting. Working from the same image, supplied prior to the course, students will learn how to transfer their image to canvas, create a mastercopy, mix the perfect colours and develop their brushwork. Through these well structured sessions learning both direct and indirect painting methods, strong emphasis will be given to the importance of values, colour, texture and form.

Material list and reference images will be sent by the Crescent once booking is confirmed.

As this is a full 5 day course, held in the same studio, students will be able to leave their materials, canvas etc in the studio
