Tue. 19 & 26 January, 2 & 9 February, 19.00 - 21.00 
Language: English / Turkish
Led by Gabrielle Reeves

This series takes place online. 

During this 4-part series, participants will be exposed to a variety of oil painting techniques and build basic knowledge in colour theory, observational painting, and application processes. Through online instruction, participants will learn the very basics of the medium and be guided to create several studies in oil. This series is open to all levels, whether you are new to painting and drawing, or looking to expand your skills. 

For this workshop we recommend water-based oil paints, available at most art stores. Water-based oil paints do not require turpentine for clean up (brushes, etc.) and are a friendlier alternative for the environment. We are happy to help you source these; please reach out 🌱
