Each week, students will complete at least one guided artwork through instructor demonstrations, individualized support, and constructive feedback.
Throughout the course, students will strengthen their technical skills by creating oil pastel drawings, watercolour studies, and acrylic paintings. Projects will feature a range of inspiring subjects, including still lifes, florals, fruit, and landscapes. All materials are provided by the instructor.
