Learn how to approach the complex subject of Waterfalls & Creeks in this 4 week course with an experienced local artist & tutor(for adults).
Course Description
Moving water created excitement in an artwork. There is often a sharp contrast between the sparkling water and the surrounding rocks and foliage. This offers an opportunity to learn about conposition and focus.
Over the four sessions, students will learn to transfer an image ontoa canvas; then build an oil work from an initial underpainting. The weekly lessons will allow opportunity for the oil paint to dry between sessions so that we can build two works over four weeks.
In the course of the workshops students will work on two paintings.
Please note: There is no guarantee that you will go home with a completed work(s) but you will leave with the skills and knowledge needed to complete the project at home.

About the Tutor: Catherine Ketton
I have been painting in oil for over twenty years and teaching oil painting for ten. I love the flexibility of oils and delight in the many ways I can work with the medium - careful layering of transparent colour like the old masters or luscious thick impasto to create robust textures. Whether I use delicate brushwork, or vigorous palette knife marks, oil is both forgiving and challenging.
So perhaps a characteristic of my work is that it can't be pinned down. I embrace my personality which wants to try everything - new styles, different techniques, yet another genre. I identify with the works of Vincent Van Gogh "I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it."
I love research in experimenting with something new. Whilst this eclectic approach is not always the best pathway for the artist, it is highly recommended for the art tutor. I have lots to offer beginning and emerging artists and I love to share my enthusiasm and skills.
