out and about

One -on-one tuition is a great way to get started with an art adventure.
Or you may like to book  a painting tutorial with a friend or partner, or a group.
Whatever level of experience you have there is always something new to learn, and  it may be that you would enjoy introducing some new inspirations  or techniques to refresh and expand your practice.

We take cameras and sketchbooks for a walk, looking at shop window displays, streetscapes, cafe culture, clouds, parks, gardens, and dogs. Learning about composition, close focus and distance perspective and cropping photos. We bring these observational sketches or photos back into a working space to develop further drawings and paintings in your chosen media. Suitable for all levels of experience.
As well as learning technical skills this course enables participants to enjoy exploring their environment and sharing their progress with each other, it is  interactive and fun.

Since I have started tutorial sessions working with an  art tutor, it has given me a whole new awareness of the true me in all that I express in all that I do....spending time to develop my creative expression has changed the way I see the world.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time during my tutorials with Bernadette. Every session being totally different but with the same absolute love and presence that holds you and allows you to work through anything that comes up.... I highly recommend anyone to participate in all that Bernadette has to offer.

I have also posted some Free On Line Tutorials for you to try.

Creative Expression Summer Workshop

 We had great fun playing with pattern and texture for this workshop, using leaves and stencils to create magical layers.

Working on pieces of canvas means that you can be more experimental and develop ideas and colour systems before you embark on a larger piece. Often these first experiments are gems to treasure.

Themes which emerged: ocean, garden, abstraction, ancient manuscripts . . .
