In this course you will get in touch with your creative side in this small and friendly class, through step by step instructions. Great training for any budding artist. All you need is a sketch book and all other materials and refreshments are provided. In the summer term you will have fun working in the gorgeous landscaped private garden of The Colour Factory. All abilities are welcome.
Over the year the topics covered are mark-making, drawing from observation, perspective, colour theory, printmaking, portraiture, the still life and plein-air. This class will build confidence and the ability to observe and record accurately.
The Colour Factor has been the home of Rosie’s art courses since 2016. Her classes are popular and offer a rich learning experience that build confidence within a vibrant art community. Each term she will guide you step by step through a range of materials and processes from pencils, charcoal to acrylic and oil. Learning is through studying the process of a master painter with historical context in the form of a talk and short film. The process of making begins with exercises in drawing and lots of demonstrations that lead you into creating a wonderful painting.
Rosie is a teacher and practicing artist with over thirty years of experience. You can see her on Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year, episode 4. Do take a look at her website and Instagram account for the latest photos from her classes and news on her art work.
