What the course is about

The course will introduce you to new techniques and approaches building upon your current knowledge. The tutor will provide demonstrations and examples and offer a range of subjects and starting points to take your acrylic painting to the next level.

Topics may include:

  • Colour theory in practice for different effects
  • Different acrylic painting techniques and the use of tools
  • Develop your existing acrylic painting skills?
  • Exploring abstract and realistic styles
  • Developing underpainting, finishing effects and application.

This is a structured course including demonstrations, group and individual coaching. At times you may be given step-by-step instructions. A range of techniques and artists will be sampled in order to support learners’ individual style. Starting points may include both real life subjects and photographs, with a variety of subjects.

Learning takes place in a friendly classroom setting, which is a great place for social interaction and helping you meet new people.

This workshop is subsidised by Government funding so you should aim to attend the whole Course.
