In this way, amateur painters gain the essential skills and knowledge needed to express themselves through the art of painting and begin developing their own personal style.
Personalised Artistic Guidance
The teaching programme is developed by the Artistic Director in direct collaboration with each student and is tailored to their individual needs, abilities and goals.
Exercises, subject matter and course content are individually tailored to encourage the meaningful development of each student's artistic and pictorial thinking, while supporting the achievement of their personal artistic goals.
