Tutor - Catherine Knight

2-day workshop

Saturday 21 March, 10.30am-4.30pm, and Sunday 22 March, 10.30am-3.30pm, 2026

An exploration of interior spaces and the world framed and contained by windows looking at the work of Danish artist Vilhelm Hammershøi and contemporary American artist, Lois Dodd. We will explore the versatility of oil paint: colour mixing, using a palette knife, using a coloured ground, using thin washes, building up glazes and exploring texture. This will be a fun and experimental course where you can build confidence and develop your own style. Suitable for people who have some previous painting experience. 

Suitable for all abilities.

All materials provided, though we recommend bringing your own brushes if you have them. A selection of sizes, both flat head and pointed rounds is advised. Please wear clothes suitable for a painty studio environment, and sensible footwear for off-site drawing. Bring a bag or portfolio suitable for taking wet work home with you after the sessions.
