DRAWING AND PAINTING PORTRAITS Ref: A1405
Hazel Lale is a professional artist, illustrator and teacher whose work is widely exhibited
Drawing and painting portraits provides an opportunity to catch the essence and energy of a particular person. During the course we will look at how to use line and colour with confidence as we learn to understand and explore the face and head. This may mean taking bold colour and new ideas with changes in the way you are thinking. You will need competent drawing skills and a huge dose of enthusiasm.
Residential: £290.00
Non-residential: £185.00

Valerie Oxley is a member of the Society of Botanical Artists and chairman of the Florilegium Society
A delightful course for people who enjoy plants and flowers and would like to make detailed records of their observations in pencil and watercolour paint. Tulips with their wonderful colour and lovely shapes will be the topic for the first class studies in compositions, and daffodils with cups and trumpets will be used for practice in perspective and shadowing yellow flowers. Please bring any sketch-books created during the past year to share with the class. Demonstrations will be followed by individual tuition throughout the course. Suitable for all levels of ability.
