AM We go on location in the morning and understand what painting is!! We always take you to wonderful places that have architecture and flora/fauna and people - so you can choose your subjects and what to draw.

All will be explained. We sketch in charcoal or pencil, understand line and how we compose fine art paintings. we also talk about concepts, and how to create an original painting. It is fun, relaxed and original!

A VERY GOOD STARTING POINT FOR YOU!! we are told and very original!!

PM We create a masterpiece in the studio - in acrylics - which is the easiest medium to use. Some students however, just want to paint in oils or watercolour. YOUR CHOICE - you can do that too.

It's quite fun to experiment on this holiday!! Help and guidance is given at all times. We are very different (we are told) as we do not 'just let you paint' - we teach, inform and motivate every day!!

Day finishes at 4.30pm
