Ready To Paint Sketches
I am producing ready to paint sketches from sketches that I have done on painting holidays and sketching days out, I then scan these into the computer and then print them on to Saunders Waterford paper. This takes away the fear of spending two or three hours sketching and then making a mistake while painting. The student knows that all I need to do is press a button and they will have another sketch to work from.

Materials
if you don't have materials
don't worry, you can hire materials for the day, so don't rush out buying materials wait until we've had a chat, and use the palette that I have already set up for hire.
Subject matter
ready to paint sketches
I have lots of sketches I have done on painting holidays and days out in Derbyshire that I turn into ready to paint sketches and initially we will be working from these.
If you are a beginner we will be painting from ready to paint sketches as a paint along. If you are an improver you can set your own pace or work along with the rest of us.
Life classes
once a month
I will be doing live classes on a regular basis. This is a fantastic opportunity to improve your sketching skills, they are five-hour lessons with a lunch break provided.
Art group demonstrations
If you are a member of a painting group and would like painting demonstration please contact me through the contacts page. Travelling expenses are charged at £0.15 per mile.
I also give painting demonstrations for small groups at my studio and because of size restrictions it is limited to a maximum of nine.
On any of the painting holidays I will also do a painting demonstration at any of the locations if required.
Painting demonstrations at my studio
if you are interested in coming to watch me paint at my studio please fill in the form below. There are no fixed times for these demonstrations and it all depends on numbers of people interested. You will go on a list and when I have approximately 8 people I will then arrange a demonstration day and you will be notified. As I will be doing a full painting it is difficult to say how long the demonstration will be as I will work to complete the picture but I anticipate about three hours. They will normally take place on a Saturday.
