Oil Painting Class with Paul McDonald Smith

In my class we observe the traditional approach to oil painting with a particular emphasis on tonal impressionist principles. Each term subjects include portrait, figure, flowers and still life, providing students with the opportunity to work direct from life, studying the relationships of tone, form and colour at their own pace.

The class aims to advance students understanding of natural appearances, to define and classify their observations of subject matter, and to develop skilful control of the medium of oil paint.

Please note this class only accepts students above 18 years of age.
