Description
This course is run by Heads Up.
This 6-week painting course will build on the skills taught in the previous 4-week starter course. Using the garden at Heads Up as inspiration, we will explore landscape painting, while honing our technical skills with a series of Still Life paintings using seasonal flowers, fruits and vegetables as our subject matter. By the end of the course, you will have some beautiful paintings to take away, and have the confidence to paint by yourself.
All materials and equipment are provided, just bring an apron and anything else you might have if desired.
