2022 Oil Painting en plein air, with Leon Holmes (SOLD OUT)
About
Leon will be teaching in oils, focusing on perspective and scale, lights and darks, tonal values, colour mixing and a myriad of oil painting tips and tricks.
After two daily demonstrations on how to capture a scene under constantly changing conditions, Leon will be assisting students individually.
Students with some experience in oil painting will get the most out of this workshop, but if you have been painting for years and feel your work needs a new direction, you will also love it.
“Exploring the planet, a small box of paints, a few brushes and a rag, making marks with colour, seeing the beauty on offer…simply gratitude for life.” Leon Holmes
