About this workshop

Discover the timeless beauty of oil painting as you create your own artwork using professional oil paints and linseed oil. Learn to blend rich colours, build texture, and create depth in a relaxed, beginner-friendly workshop.

Experience one of the world's most celebrated artistic mediums in our Oil Painting Workshop. Using professional oil paints and traditional linseed oil, you'll create your own original painting while learning techniques that have been used by artists for centuries.

Throughout the workshop, you'll explore the unique qualities of oil paints, including their smooth blending, rich pigmentation, and extended drying time, allowing you to build intricate details, soft transitions, and beautiful layers of colour. Whether you'd like to paint a landscape, flowers, a portrait, still life, abstract artwork, or work from your own reference image, you'll have complete creative freedom.

Our instructors will guide you through colour mixing, composition, layering, brushwork, and blending techniques while encouraging you to develop your own artistic style. Thanks to the forgiving nature of oil paints, you'll have plenty of time to refine your artwork and experiment with different ideas throughout the session.

All materials are included, including a stretched canvas, professional oil paints, linseed oil, brushes, palettes, easels, aprons, and everything you'll need during the workshop.

Suitable for beginners as well as more experienced artists, this workshop offers a relaxing introduction to the world of oil painting while giving you the opportunity to create a beautiful piece of artwork you'll be proud to display.

Good to know

Do I need any previous painting experience?

No. This workshop is beginner-friendly, and our instructors will guide you through each stage of the painting process.

What can I paint?

You're welcome to paint landscapes, florals, portraits, still life, abstract artwork, or work from your own reference image.

What materials do you use?

We use professional oil paints together with traditional linseed oil, allowing for smooth blending, vibrant colours, and detailed brushwork.

Can I take my painting home on the same day?

Yes, but please note that oil paintings take considerably longer to dry than acrylic paintings. You'll be able to take your artwork home carefully, but it should remain flat or upright in a safe place while it cures over the following days.
