The Figurative Painting Class provides an in-depth journey into capturing form and expression through paint.

By combining theory, practical exercises, and personalised feedback, participants enhance their skills in both drawing and painting from life. The classes focus on applying and manipulating oil paint to master depth, texture, and mood, with special attention to light and shadow, composition, and cultivating a unique artistic style.
