Painting courses
This year we are focusing on media (types of painting courses) not just watercolour. This gives you more opportunity to try new things, such as oils, silk painting and also framing your own beautiful painting. Remember variety is the spice of life.
These courses are well priced and include accommodation, food, tuition and materials, so no hidden surprises…..except for bringing out your own talent!
All courses are based at the Foxford lodge except for the cities and / or venues mentioned elsewhere.
What you can expect from a course that you take from Harry himself and at the following
