Online Monthly Group Workshop

SanFrancisco

Learn to paint streets filled with light.

I never thought I’d want to paint a city street, but San Francisco changed my mind. The subject of the painting is really the light and atmosphere, and the interesting shapes found in a street scene. This workshop also explores how you can free up your colours by working from a black and white photograph, and how we can use images from the internet to paint from.

Follow me step by step as I show you the techniques I use to paint this light-filled scene. Designing an inviting scene, painting with freedom, and a variety of fun techniques are all demonstrated in the video. Enjoy!

Come join me!

Want me to teach a workshop in your area?

Each year I teach a few workshops in various locations. I've taught in New Zealand, Mexico, The French Alps, Australia, Hawaii, USA, Canada, Italy and Spain.

Simply contact me and we'll see what we can arrange. I'm happy to fly to anywhere in the world to teach (when covid allows) - just let me know where you are and how many people you could organise to join us. It's not as difficult as it sounds - just contact a local painting group if you're not already in one and put the idea to them.

For instance to fly to the United States for a workshop I would need about 10-15 people for a 2 day class paying $150USD each per day. The closer you are to New Zealand (where I live) the cheaper the workshop would be - Australia would cost about $120AUD each per day. Within NZ is about $100NZD each per day.

Contact me to talk about a organising a group workshop.

Private Tuition

For anyone wanting to develop their painting skills rapidly, a one on one day course with me could be just what the doctor ordered. We'll usually start outdoors where you'll learn about WHY things look like they do and how to translate your perceptions to paint on canvas. We can also paint in my studio.

The tuition will be tailored to your skill level - even if it's your very first painting. It's a fun and engaging day and your brain will be bursting with information by the end of it. My goal is to thoroughly inform and inspire you to greater things.
