Service Description
All Materials Provided. All Michael Harding Oil Paint, hand prepared. surface, and mediums. Monday 3rd Tuesday 4th August 10am - 4pm 'Ninas en el Mar' by Joaquin Sorolla, 1909 Is an absolutely gorgeous image of two sisters playing in the sea, where the tones of the sea are reflected and mirrored in their dresses and figures, and on the edges of their figures which then allows for a painterly impression of these two little figures to be at one with the sea. Gorgeous cerulean, cobalt and ultramarine, a combination between cool green blue, and warmer red blues, juxtapose to make a dreamlike envelopment. subtly, all four primary pigments are present, between red, yellow, green and blue to make a hamronious whole, with a slightly distorted perspective which gives the sense of slight disorientation surrounding and moving waves can give. The quality of immersion, and that 'nothing else exists' outwith their single activity is also achieved, thus forming a strong impression of total innocence. It is thought that after arriving back from a tour in America, which brought Sorolla much international renown, he at last returned to his beloved sea, just as he did during the summer months, and was able to reinterpret, time and again, with his easel set up on the shores of the Valencian beach and during long, intense days, the themes he loved most: the Mediterranean Sea, the golden light of the sun, children… those little things that brought him great joy when he peacefully observed them from the shore. Over two days, we will explore this wonderful masterwork of childhood innocence bathed in the light of the Mediterranean golden hour...

We are a small business and we depend on every booking to ensure that classes can go ahead. If a tutor has to withdraw from teaching the scheduled course for any reason (medical/personal/professional) before the start of a scheduled course, during a scheduled course, if the course is 8 weeks long or scheduled as x3 terms of 8 weeks long each, The Edinburgh Drawing School will find a replacement tutor for the course designed by that tutor for The Edinburgh Drawing School. The course content will be the same as the originally booked course. A student will not be entitled to a refund should the school have no option but to find a replacement tutor. If a tutor leaves and starts work elsewhere, and a student prefers to take classes with them personally at the tutor's new workplace, that is at the discretion of the student and no refund is entitled to them or will be given. If a student is unable to attend a class due to medical/personal/professional reasons, then EDS must be informed immediately so that the tutor can be notified. If you are missing a class because you suspect that you have developed Covid-19, please let us know immediately so that we can alert fellow student and tutors. Non-attendance of classes/workshops does not automatically mean a refund, however EDS will assess the circumstance If a tutor cannot teach a class due to illness, the scheduled class will be covered by another tutor or the class will be postponed and rescheduled for the following week at the same time on the same day of the week. Make up classes are scheduled during the half term week, or in the week following the end of term. The Edinburgh Drawing School runs 8 week terms of scheduled classes, 9 weeks if including the half term and then 10 weeks to include a week at the end of term for any necessary make up classes. Thus, the business always completes it's contractual obligations of 8 scheduled classes to booked students. If a student cannot attend a make up class, no refund is due.
