3 hours Class size 1 to 15 guests    

  $89 (Afterpay & PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Step into a calm, creative studio environment and explore the beauty of oil painting for beginners through a delicate floral still life. In this guided workshop, you’ll recreate an elegant composition of soft pink roses arranged in a glass jar, set against a luminous blue background. Designed to be approachable yet refined, this class is perfect for anyone looking to start or build confidence in oil painting. You’ll be introduced to water-mixable oil paints, allowing you to enjoy the richness and depth of traditional oils without the use of harsh solvents, ideal for a more accessible and studio-friendly experience.
Using a curated colour palette inspired by the reference image, you’ll gain a practical understanding of colour mixing, layering, blending, and paint handling. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a completed floral oil painting on canvas and the confidence to continue exploring oil painting at home.
