SEASONAL LANDSCAPE PAINTING COURSES

These courses are designed for beginners and improvers who would like to explore an organic painting style inspired by seasonal landscapes, working with acrylics on board.

Seasonal Landscape Painting Courses run in four-week cycles, with each course dedicated to a new landscape composition inspired by the changing colours, moods and scenery throughout the year.

Due to popular demand, additional weekday courses are being introduced during the winter months, giving you more choice of dates while keeping classes small and informal. Each course follows the same composition and painting process, with step-by-step demonstrations and plenty of individual guidance throughout.

Acrylics are a wonderfully versatile medium, fast-drying, easy to layer, and ideal for creating texture and depth, making them perfect for this expressive style of painting.

During the course you will:

• Work on 45cm × 38cm, 3mm MDF boards, a durable and beautifully responsive surface that suits the layered acrylic process beautifully. The slim, stable board is also perfectly suited to framing, and many students go on to frame their finished artwork.
• Explore layering and expressive techniques to build vibrant, textured paintings
• Work from photographs of seasonal landscapes
• Learn how to use light, mid, and dark tones to create depth and atmosphere

The monthly courses run over four consecutive weeks, each focusing on a different landscape composition each month.

Course days vary from month to month, with additional weekday morning courses available during the winter months. Please check the individual course dates when booking to choose the option that suits you.

When booking, you will need to select your preferred course day and attend on that same day for all four weeks. If you are unable to attend one of your sessions, it may be possible to join an alternative class that week to make up the time, subject to availability.

These small, informal classes — with up to five people — are held in my studio in Ditchling, allowing for individual guidance and focused support throughout the painting process.

• Payments for multi-week courses or workshops are normally made in full in advance. However, in certain situations where a participant has asked to reserve a space without booking online, a non-refundable deposit is required to secure the place. Whether you have paid a deposit or the full fee upfront, refunds cannot be given if you are unable to attend or decide to withdraw for any reason, as materials are prepared, time is allocated, and the space cannot usually be filled once the course has begun.
• If I cancel a session for unforeseen reasons, a full refund or alternative date will be offered.

Course fees cover the scheduled sessions and intended learning outcomes only. Where group numbers are smaller, participants may naturally receive more individual tuition and may complete their composition more quickly; however, this does not entitle participants to additional sessions, alternative workshops, or extended tuition beyond the booked course.

• My studio is located on the first floor, accessible only by stairs.
• Customers with mobility needs must contact me before booking to ensure the workshop is suitable.
• No refunds can be given if accessibility needs were not disclosed prior to booking.
