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.

Still Life – seeing beauty in the ordinary. This course focuses on the foundational elements of painting, including drawing, underpainting, colour mixing, tonal values, and brushwork. You’ll work from direct observation, building your skills through a combination of developmental studies and completed paintings. Throughout the course, you’ll look at art history, drawing inspiration from still life painters, from the Dutch Masters to modern and contemporary artists.
