16. ACRYLIC STILL LIFE, PORTRAITURE AND LANDSCAPE
Pamela Griffith
Two days of still life, two days of portraiture and two days of street scenes, on location in the old section of Grafton, makes for an action packed week. You will learn how to master many of the techniques of acrylic painting, as your highly experienced tutor will demonstrate as you go along. You will be helped with composition and colour theory as well as how to begin and follow through with an idea. The mysteries of the various mediums used in acrylic painting will be taught so that you can enhance your paintings. The tutor tries to give individual attention to each student in the workshop with the idea to bring out each student’s personal best. Everyone will produce at least three pictures. The Models’ Fee will be advised upon enrolment. Open to allcomers, 16 years and over. www.pamelagriffith.com
