Oil Painting Course

Master the Art of Oil Painting
​
Join my Oil Painting Training Course to build a strong foundation in oil painting techniques and knowledge. Designed for all levels, this flexible course focuses on essential skills like accurate drawing, colour mixing, and paint application while exploring the use of materials to your advantage.

Course Focus Areas

Art Materials
Learn about oil painting materials—paints, brushes, mediums, and surfaces—and how to use them effectively to achieve your desired results.

Accurate Drawing
Develop techniques for drawing with precision, ensuring a solid foundation for your paintings through observation and measurement.


Colour Mixing
Master the art of mixing colours to create harmonious palettes, understanding colour theory and how to achieve depth and vibrancy.


Learning to See
Train your eye to observe light, shadow, and form, enhancing your ability to translate what you see onto the canvas with clarity.


Paint Application
Explore various methods of applying paint, from layering and glazing to impasto, to create texture and bring your work to life.


Course Structure
The Oil Painting Training Course is designed to be flexible, allowing you to attend sessions that suit your schedule—no weekly commitment required.

Each session focuses on a specific subject, such as a still life or landscape, where I guide you through the focus areas above.

You’ll then be given exercises to complete independently, with personalised support to address any difficulties.

Sessions typically last 3 hours. Students are required to bring their own materials, and I’ll provide a recommended list upon booking.

​Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced artist, this course adapts to your needs, helping you grow at your own pace.

Materials Needed for Classes
Please note that the fees do not include any materials needed, hence these need to be bought by yourself. Owning your own art materials is important in arts since you will need to practice outside the class in order to progress and become proficient in your skill.

​Beginners will be doing only drawing and hence they will only need the tools for drawing (no need to buy paints etc)

Students who are going to start painting will need to buy their own basic set of paints but after we discuss to decide about your needs.
