New - Online tutorials!

I have now released two new mini-courses or workshops for online viewing in answer to many requests.

These are suitable for beginners and experienced artists who would like tips or inspiration about a different painting style.

I paint impressionistically and often use a striking colour palette. My handling of colour is perhaps one of my greatest strengths. I like to pass on tips about colour mixing on the canvas, optical blending, and modulating colour. This Highland Cow demonstration includes a very colourful background created by layering, and I show you how this can be done.

You can follow along and paint with me if you like. You can also watch the video and use it as inspiration for your next piece of work.

The video is yours to watch as many times as you like.

I have included a series of 5 videos demonstrating my process step-by-step. There is a PDF materials list, so that you can check that you have everything you need before you begin

You can also use a reference photo of the highland cow. I have also included a pdf of my preferred suppliers if you want to buy any new supplies.

I have also made brief notes to accompany the videos, which are also included in PDF, along with a series of photographs that illustrate the drawing-out stages of the painting. Hopefully, these will serve as a memory jog for you.

I hope you enjoy the workshop. Please get in touch to show me your work and ask me any questions.
