Paint in the historic City of Wells and
surrounding Somerset countryside
with Michal Jasiewicz in Watercolour.
The holiday is based at The Swan Hotel
which faces the cathedral as it looks
out onto Cathedral Green and is just a
walk away from some amazing
painting subjects including the
architecture of the Cathderal &
Bishop's Palace.
We will paint subjects such as Vicar's
Close with its stone buildings, Bishop's
Palace with its moat and the medieval
market and we will get into the
Somerset countryside and paint places
such as Priddy and Nunney.
Michal loves the spontaneity and
freshness that comes with
watercolours and he will inspire you to
paint exciting watercolours where he
places great emphasis of light on a
subject. As an architect he loves
architectural subjects and how the
light falls on a building and he is the
ideal tutor to help you paint historical
Wells. He loves combining the formal
shapes of architectural subjects with
the freedom of much looser
expressionistic methods that
demonstrate the amazing light
bouncing off buildings.
He will adapt his teaching style to the
requirements of each individual from
beginners to the advanced painters
and will give plenty of one-to-one
tuition. He will do a demonstration at
each location to help you understand
his interpretation of the scene and
then will help guide you through the
painting process including composition,
how to depict light, colour and tone to
dramatic effect.
