What you'll do
Get a rush with the brush! Explore the classic artform of oil painting in this relaxing four-hour masterclass under the expert guidance of artist Christopher Vidal. Evoke the beauty of luscious and serene waterfalls, using your new-found oil painting skills in this beginners class and learn all the fundamentals essential to creating picture-perfect paintings!
We'll start the day with a brief introduction on oil painting, materials, and the methodology behind landscape painting, before moving onto the painting process from start to finish! Starting with a sketch, then moving onto a brush, you'll develop an understanding of the use of colour, and how to paint using multiple layers while looking at composition, tone, texture and edges. Perfect for beginners or those wanting to freshen up their skills, by the end of the session you'll have a completed creation ready to hang at home, ready to impress the sh*t outta your family and friends!
Even if you’ve completed an oil painting course with Work-Shop, the painting and the subject matter are always different – so you’ll always be learning something new!
Please note: This class requires at least five students to run. In the unlikely event that we don't get this number of students, we'll cancel the class and fully refund you and inform you via email, so please watch your email a few days prior to the class
