These days artists that are just starting out are often told that it is the tools themselves that restricts self-expression. I believe that they actually enable to fully express visions without being hampered by a lack of education.
Traditional skills are necessary for developing a foundational base from which the artist can work. It is craftsmanship that is the foundation of self-expression, not the lack of it. Conversely, being creative without knowledge is like re-inventing the wheel.
The joy of gaining knowledge and a solid grounding in the basics of laws in art and to practice them, is as beautiful as the works created through this knowledge.
Our painting classes are suitable for everyone, from beginner to the quite advanced. Marcel has an enormous in-depth knowledge for the medium of oil and caringly shares his vast expertise on the subject.
You will look at the world a little differently and discover colours, forms and depth that you did not even know existed and be able to learn how the masters of old times worked and created.
