ALL DAY WORKSHOP - LARGE ABSTRACT SEASCAPE IN OILS - Saturday Apr 5th 2025 - 10am - 4pm Bournemouth

The idea of painting in oils fills some people with fear. For others it opens up a new exciting world. If you fall into either of those categories, this workshop could be for you.

Designed to cover some of the main principles in oil painting and to simplify the processes that many find tricky. Suitable for beginners and those who have had some experience in oil painting. 

Held in my Bournemouth studio, this workshop is centred around painting a large 60 x 60cm abstract seascape and will help you create your own abstract masterpiece which you can take home.

The aim of the course is to teach basic principles which you can develop further as you wish. Painting should be fun and enjoyable so you can be assured of a friendly relaxed atmosphere to work in.

My workshops are designed to teach the basic principles of various subjects, so you can apply them in your own artistic creations. I share the knowledge and experience of my time as a professional artist, gained from years of experimenting with various methods and techniques. 

All workshops are held in my private studio in a relaxed environment which helps make the painting process enjoyable. Creating art should be fun and inspiring  and my workshops endeavour to achieve this.

The maximum capacity of workshops is four people so you can be assured of a relaxed session with plenty of individual attention if required.
