Painting water and sky, and making the best of painting en-plein air.

Richard will demonstrate his 3 stage painting process. Key themes - simplification, composition, big shapes/ small shapes, focal points, tones not colours and adding final touches.

He will assist each student with their pieces during the day. Break sessions - painting plein air, what good kit looks like.
