Courses
Short Courses and Workshops
Drawing and painting courses are currently in development in Glasgow. These artist-led sessions are designed for adults who want a straightforward way into art, whether you are starting for the first time, returning after a break, or looking for a way through a creative block.
The aim is to create welcoming, practical classes that help you build confidence step by step through looking, drawing, colour, composition and painting. Tutoring will be rooted in studio practice, with an emphasis on ‘doing’ and discovery.
Currently in Development
- Beginner drawing and colour course that include looking and seeing, analytical drawing, mark making, tone, colour and experimenting with materials.
- Beginner oil painting course for people who are new to painting in oils, using observation, research and composition to develop an oil painting from your own ideas and learning process skills along the way.
- Small-group teaching with a supportive studio approach.
Who these courses are for
These courses are designed for adults who want to begin drawing or painting, return to creative practice, or build stronger foundations in observation and image-making. They suit people who want more structure, guidance and encouragement in a small-group setting, and those who feel creatively stuck and want a practical way back into making work.
What you will gain
By the end of the drawing and colour course, you should feel more confident drawing from observation and making decisions on the page, rather than simply copying what you see on a photograph.
By the end of the oil painting course, you will have taken an idea through research, composition and making, and produced work that feels more personal and considered. The wider aim is to help you understand the basics, feel more comfortable in a studio setting, and continue developing your work after the course.
