Course description
Two art tutors
- Level:- For artists with some degree of proficiency in their medium. (pastel/acrylic/watercolour)
- Why venture out into the real world? Is it a venture or adventure?
- There are many popular art tours happening all over the world offering to enrich the travel and share the experience of painting together.
- This workshop is for artists who are uncomfortable with the concept of painting on site.
- They may feel exposed, inadequate or simply frustrated with their results. Or maybe they just want to feel prepared.
- This is time to learn how to choose, set up and capture the scene.
- Lyn will demonstrate. We will paint on site in the morning then bring the work back to the studio each day
- to assess results and decide what the next step might be and possibilities of improving.
- It will aim to sharpen your decisions in all stages and allow you to relax with the process.
- The afternoons will spring from the morning’s painting.— what is the next step? We will all possibly have a different ‘next step’.
- Lyn Mellady and Julie Goldspink will take this course and split to a max no 5 people in a group
- $250 for 3 days
- Note-
- For interstate or distant participants there is a good variety of accommodation nearby.
