Painting Days

Kate is a passionate teacher of art and takes great pride in every course she leads at the studio. She has a highly interactive and engaging teaching style that has made her an extremely popular choice for both beginners and developing artists. The one-day workshops will introduce you to the process of oil painting using a simple Zorn colour palette. We will work through the stages of developing a painting.
