“In my years of teaching art, there are two things that stand out as vital to being a successful artist – learning to see – and loosening up. It is these two qualities that make your art stand out – a fresh, original vision, and a confident, relaxed approach. Sketching is a vital part of my own artistic practise, keeping my senses alert and attentive to my surroundings. Our seeing, our observation, our understanding of proportion, perspective, light and shade, colour and form – all are strengthened in the process. We grow as artists”
We are delighted to announce two new classes at the Schoolhouse for Art this autumn and welcome two new teachers !!
Starting in October we will be running a Photography class with Paddy Maddock. We will also run our first one day Bookbinding workshop on the 8th of October with Caroline Byrne.
