The Drama of Andalucia – in oils with Kevin Scully
Saturday 7th September 2024
10am – 4pm Studio One
All abilities welcome
Escape to Spain on this one-day workshop to paint scenes of the country’s most southerly region. Andalucia is somewhere that never fails to enchant and inspire the artist, from its beautiful national parks, iconic architecture, snow-capped mountains, white hilltop villages, and the only desert in Europe, there’s an impressive variety of subject matter just waiting to be painted. We will be working in oils, and you can choose between traditional oil paints, faster-drying Alkyd oils, or water-based oils.
A course for all levels of ability and experience. All reference material will be provided. Everything you need for this workshop is available to buy in our warehouse shop with an extra 5% discount.
