Sold out Painting in Italy… Book here

I’ll be running my plein air course at Hotel Leone in the Le Marche region of Italy, September 20th-27th 2024. 

Le Marche is similar to Tuscany – quieter, but just as dramatic and beautiful. The views stretch out to the coast one way and the Sibillini mountains the other – with medieval hilltop villages and towns in between. It is a painters paradise!

I am passionate about teaching a solid painterly technique, from compositional skills and tonal study through to colour mixing and brushwork. Much of my process is about mixing colours and tones accurately, with a freer, loose application of paint to achieve impressionistic light and movement. With a simple palette, in oils or acrylics as you prefer, we will follow this process from plein air study through to studio finish, simplifying the stunning scenery of the area to depict beautifully composed, atmospheric paintings; full of light.
