Sketchbook to Easel Course

Service Description

This 6 week course is designed to guide participants through from initial observational starting points through to resolved pieces of work. We will use the local landscape as well as natural forms as the inspiration for your work and through a series of studies and developmental approaches, develop an understanding of composition, colour and tone. The course would suit both beginners and those with more experience, looking to work in a new direction. Different media and techniques will be introduced throughout the course and there will be access to a wide range of different painting and drawing media in the studio to enable participants to make choices about what suits them best. Group sizes are small and there will be plenty of individual support and tuition to enable participants to really gain an insight into how they can progress to making resolved works of art. There is an emphasis on understanding the decision making process of how to create works of art through the course to enable participants to leave with enhanced knowledge, understanding and enthusiasm for how they may continue their own artistic practice. There will be an additional £20 fee (payable on the day of the first session please) for all the materials that you will need for the course. Refreshments will be provided each week. About Liz Harvey: Liz is an artist and a highly experienced art teacher who will guide you throughout the day to develop your artwork. Liz has a BA(hons) in Fine Art and History of Art as well as over 25 years of teaching experience. Drawn to natural forms and landscape lines, her own work is a balance between observation and abstraction.
