What You Will Learn
You will learn how to use oil painting materials correctly, mix colours to create harmonious shades, understand the relationship between light and shadow, and build a balanced composition. You will explore different paint application techniques, experiment with brushstrokes and textures, and work through the stages of creating a painting, from the initial sketch to the final details.
Beyond technique, you will discover the pleasure of working at your own pace, observing, experimenting, and finding creative solutions. Painting becomes more than a form of artistic expression: it is also an opportunity to step away from your daily routine, focus on the present moment, and reconnect with your creativity.
This course is designed for beginners, teenagers, and adults who want to explore oil painting, learn essential techniques, and enjoy a creative experience in a relaxed setting. You do not need to bring your own materials or have any previous artistic experience—just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.
