Oil Painting Course
Michael Major MA (RCA)
This course will cover a range of approaches to oil painting with practical work underpinned by the relevant methods, materials and historical information. It is suitable for beginners as well as more experienced students. Students will explore the range and depth of colour made possible by oil paint. Using a variety of still life set-ups you will produce vibrant paintings whose spontaneity is balanced by a more studied painting built up with glazed layers of colour.
Michael Major is a painter living, working and exhibiting in London. Visit his website at www.michael-major.co.uk for more information
