We are delighted to introduce Richard Kitson for this brand new course, painting for beginners!

Richard is a local artist primarily known for his portraiture and figurative works in oil paint. You may recognise Richard from Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year where he painted Paralympic athlete Kadeena Cox MBE at the Wallace Collection in London.

You will learn basic skills, and develop over the 6 week course, and take inspiration from artists such as Van Gogh, Tai-Shan Schierenberg, and Rembrandt.

You will have the opportunity to be expressive in using different techniques to create a personal final response. Open to all abilities and levels, Richard will guide you step by step in a friendly, and comfortable, laidback atmosphere.

6 week block £120
