Marlborough Art Society has arranged a fabulous workshop being tutored by Mieke Davies. Mieke's workshops are always well attended and we consistently receive wonderful feedback about her oil painting workshops—participants really value her thoughtful and skilled tutoring.

This workshop is offered at a great price for 4 days and is a fantastic opportunity for both beginners and experienced oil painters who want to learn about how oil paint works and the techniques that can be achieved. This is a very structured course delving into the properties, history and science behind oil paint. Students will end up with 4 paintings using different techniques including old masters, impressionist and contemporary styles. Good drawing skills are helpful but certainly not necessary as the focus is on technique and application of paint. Always guaranteed fun, challenging and inspirational learning!

To register for this workshop, please email us at info@marlboroughartsociety.co.nz Spaces are limited, so you are encouraged to sign up early to secure your place.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz
