Beginner

All attendees must be aged 18 and over.

Choose a Beginners course if you are looking for a broad introduction to the medium you are studying. Students spend time learning the very basics of the taught medium, for example, how to mix colours, use different tools, set up an easel. Our Beginner courses are suitable for students with no prior experience, they tend to follow a more structured path than our other courses, ensuring each student receives the guidance they need from the tutor.

All materials are supplied for this course. Please wear clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty, or bring an apron.

“The teachers were brilliant; they were all very encouraging, pleasant, easy to ask questions to and they were able to provide some individual feedback and guidance, and teach relevant techniques. Each class was extremely engrossing and stimulating.”
