Painting is a journey full of unexpected challenges, and it is through mistakes, corrections, and the process of resolution that your skills will grow. These two courses will encourages you to embrace these moments and enjoy the creative process.

This course will help you create systems that open up pathways into experimental painting and abstraction. The work will be generated through hands-on exploration, with the class being fast-paced and filled with practical demonstrations. The sessions are designed to push you beyond traditional painting techniques, encouraging you to explore new ways of thinking about form and composition, and engage with the physicality of painting. We will explore colour mixing and various application methods whilst looking and learning from abstract artists.
