Saturday 15th February           How To Paint Water

                                                          Learn how to paint still reflective water and moving water in a day.
                                                          Working with acrylic paints, Ali will guide you through a series of
                                                          practical exercises.  You'll find out how to create the illusion of
                                                          movement, fluidity and energy using colour, tone and form.
                                                          Suitable for all levels, including beginners.


Wednesday 19th February       Composition Masterclass

                                                           Regardless of how well you can paint, it won't translate into a 
                                                           well executed work of art unless you understand composition.
​                                                           In this workshop Ali will explain all the essential principles in a
                                                           series of practical exercises, so you'll never struggle again
                                                           creating a composition with impact and focus. Suitable for all
                                                           levels, including beginners.


Wednesday 4th March               How To Paint People

                                                            Many artists avoid putting figures into their paintings because
                                                            they don't feel skilled enough to add them to a landscape or
                                                            cityscape.   In this workshop you'll learn a variety of different 
                                                            techniques and practical styles of approach designed to give
                                                            you the confidence to incorporate convincing people within your
                                                            compositions.  Suitable for all levels, including beginners.


Saturday 14th March                    Understanding Light and Shade

                                                             Come along and discover how the application of light and shade
                                                             creates breathtaking images.  Understand how the subtle use of
                                                             highlights and shadows is just as important as the colour palette
                                                             in order to achieve mood, atmosphere, drama and depth.  Ali will
                                                             guide you through a series of practical exercises so you can fully
                                                             understand the importance of tone in your work.  Suitable for all
                                                             levels, including beginners.
