Painting - Your Voice | Term Four, 2024

In painting it is not necessary to understand in order to create, but it is necessary to create in order to understand.
We use this concept to give your creative voice form, and so, a uniqueness to your art.
We'll look at the nature of paint, the four main mediums - oil, acrylic, watercolour and gouache.
We'll consider and discuss colours and transparencies as well as how to approach your work with a minimal palette.
You can get help developing your work, or work independently.
Suitable for all levels.
