Painting Lessons

Find classes and tutors

Don’t put it off any longer, you can learn to paint this year. Painting lessons are fun and before you know it you will be painting in acrylics, watercolours, and oils.

Learning to paint with an experienced teacher will ensure you learn colour theory, tone and colour mixing, composition and formatting. You’ll be experimenting with colour palettes, exploring the different types of paints and brushes, and tackling a whole range of subjects including still life, landscapes, and portraits.

As you gain some painting skills your painting lessons can focus on interest areas like an abstract painting, cubism or mixed mediums.
