Great class! Gordon explained oil painting in a very clear and engaging way and he guided me very patiently through my first painting! Pretty satisfied with the outcome - I will certainly keep experimenting with this technique. Thank you Gordon :)

Engaging and enjoyable introduction to oils; as a beginner I found it suited me perfectly though I'm sure the class would be tailored to suit you, if you have some experience. The teacher was very nice, generous with his time and knowledge, encouraging and supportive...highly recommended!
