What we’re about

I run 6-week Oil Portrait courses in central Bristol! Based at The Island in Broadmead.

15th April - 20th May 2025
18.00 - 20.00
£170
Materials included.

These evening courses will focus on capturing expressions and personalities using vivid colour and light. You will be guided in a small, friendly group ensuring plenty of one-to-one tuition. I will take you through a step-by-step process of creating a likeness and exploring the application of paint. I will also be demonstrating at the start of most evenings to show methods in person.

By the end of the 6 weeks, participants will feel confident in using oil paint to mix skin tones, be able to start and resolve a portrait using the alla prima/‘wet on wet’ method and through this create depth of colour and likeness of their subject.
