Painting for Beginners is a comprehensive weekly painting course designed for you to gain the confidence to fulfil your creative aspirations. The art group is based in St Agnes, Near Truro. If you’re looking for a supportive, friendly, fun atmosphere to learn to paint either Watercolour, Acrylic or Oil then we’d love to see you in our art group. After all, we all have the same goal, creating incredible artwork.

Everyone has different artistic tastes, so whether you are an aspiring abstract expressionist, interested in impressionist landscape painting, or you have no idea, the foundation principles taught in each of the classes can be used whatever style you choose to paint in.

We will cover techniques for ensuring accurate drawing, being able to mix any colour you can imagine, to capturing the beauty of the landscape, the drama of the sea and the gesture of figure.

Classes begin with a projected presentation about the subject, dissecting the subject and showing other examples of other artists approaches. Neil will then demonstrate techniques and speak to you personally to talk about the topic and answer any questions you may have.
