Let there be Light - Painting (Stage 1) with Leigh Martin

This course provides students who have completed ‘Let There Be Light: Drawing’ with the opportunity to continue their progress into painting.

Additionally, this 5-week painting component is ideal for anyone wanting to go straight into painting without having attended the drawing section of the complete course.

The course offers the opportunity to employ various painting approaches, helping students understand how to successfully depict light both practically and emotively.

During the course students will be introduced to valuable processes and techniques, whether their interests are representational or abstract. It also offers a platform for anyone wanting to develop their skills from underpainting through to completed work
