This exciting mixed media course has an exploratory focus and is suited to students of all levels. If you are a beginner it will get you started. If you are currently painting it will energise and extend your working practice.

This course operates as a series of guided sessions that explore a wide range of painting and drawing materials and approaches. You will leave the course filled with ideas and armed with a working knowledge of how material and process can be used and combined to create marks, depth, and texture in a painting. This course accommodates a smaller number of students and maximizes tutor to student ratios.

MATERIAL LEVY
As this course has an exploratory focus there is a $25 material levy for each student and payable to your tutor at the first session. This goes toward purchasing a selection of products (see below) that will be used during the course. This gives students the opportunity to establish which products they most like working with and which are most suited to their developing ideas without having to buy a whole range of products they may not use in the future. We will discuss this further in the first class.

NB: Please remember to bring materials from the course "materials list" online.
