This course will be structured around demonstrations, set work and students’ own projects. A variety of techniques and subjects will be covered. A slightly longer session (2½ hours) allows students more time to complete paintings and also allows the tutor to offer advice as the work nears completion. The course is designed to encourage and support a personal and experimental approach to the medium and subject matter.
