Courses and Demonstrations
It is wonderful being able to paint with you on a workshop and offer demonstrations in person, these live events are listed below including their organisers. However, these are limited to the distance I am prepared to travel to visit you. So
new for 2023 I am offering exciting
courses on FACEBOOK which are now available. These have limited places (max 12) keeping the group small enables me to give quality feedback on all of the lessons and keep in touch with you all regularly. I am SO enjoying connecting with painters from all over the world in these groups.
You need to book well in advance of the course beginning to secure your place and ensure you have all the information and materials needed before the teaching begins.

NAPTON ONE DAY WORKSHOP PAINTING FIGURES IN SUNLIGHT
My demonstration on this subject was so popular that we will be using this theme for our workshop.
It's all about sunlight, and how to make your watercolours zing with light.
I will show you how I interpret sketches from my sketchbook to make watercolour paintings, as well as using photos to paint pictures which imply a sense of plein air. I will provide you with photographic reference for the day but you may also use your own images if you prefer. I will take you step by step through the process enabling you to achieve your own painting.

"Taking your ideas further"
This will be an exciting workshop for beginners and those who would like to learn more about colour, balance and design. These are such important aspects of any painting, no matter the subject.
During this workshop I will advise you how to brainstorm creative block, begin with a seed of an idea and develop that into a series of possible developed studies.
We will use a variety of these, creating layouts and compositions based on the principals of good design, tone and colour.
Come and join me on this exciting day which might take you in a direction you never thought about going in.
