This is a full day workshop during which we will be painting a crashing wave in oils.

This workshop is also good for beginners that want to experiment using oil paints. You will have a brief introduction about oil painting and materials that we will be using. We will also talk about landscape painting and the approach.

Half way through we will have a 30 min break. Lunch is not included.
