What you'll do

Overview

This painting class in Perth is a masterclass-style session in oils and acrylics, held in an artist's studio gallery in Mount Helena in the Perth Hills. The focus is on intuitive painting: letting go of reference photos, taking risks and responding to what is happening on the canvas.

What you'll make

You work on your own painting in oils or acrylics, guided to build it loosely from imagination. Over several sessions you develop both the piece and the confidence to keep working this way at home.

How the session runs

Sessions last three hours, usually on Saturday afternoons, though other times can be arranged around your schedule. With room for no more than five painters, the teacher works with each person individually, which means you can start at any point and people at different stages can share a session. Each session is $90, paid on the day, or four can be pre-booked for $300. Easels are supplied; bring your own paints following the materials list.

Who it's for

Beginners often do well because they have no habits to unlearn, while experienced artists come to break away from copying nature and loosen up.

Private & team bookings

A private session for you and up to four friends can be requested.
