Service Description

All Materials provided This course will focus on the importance of composition and learning to see ‘the big shape’. We will look at some core skills and principles in approaching painting landscapes outdoors, from life. The method is aimed at learning to be able to reproduce what is in front of us, and expressing what about it we find interesting, moving or inspiring. From a technical perspective, we will break down thinking about pictures in terms of line, shape, value and colour; we will look at working with a limited palette; and we will look at the techniques, advantages and limitations of using oil paint out in the field. The course will start with a lecture accompanying a landscape demonstration from life, putting into practice the core ideas we will be focussing on throughout retreat. The following sessions will see students finding their own compositions and working on paintings alongside Hugo, with regular instruction and feedback.
