Join Paul Talbot-Greaves on this
exciting opportunity to paint in Jersey
where we will paint some beautiful
coastal scenes and harbours.
The holiday is based at St Brelade's Bay
Hotel, a beautiful 4-star hotel with it's
own private beach front garden and
private access to the beach making it a
great place to stay. We can paint in the
gardens or on the beach and there are
plenty of boats, a nearby beautiful old
church on the sea front near to the
small harbour. There are also great
panoramic views of the bay that can be
seen from the restaurant, the dedicated
function room and many of the
bedrooms.
We will paint a wide range of subjects
including a selection of St. Brelade's
Bay, St Aubin's Harbour, Gorey Castle &
Harbour, La Corbiere Lighthouse, La
Rocq & Le Hocq as well as Rozel Bay
and Bouley Bay on the north coast and
more.
With Paul you will sketch and take
photographs on site, where we can
concentrate on composition finding and
absorb subjects, before returning to the
studio to work on a finished painting.
Although the studio time is more
controlled and comfortable, Paul still
likes to use a loose, rapid approach to
painting, usually completing a piece in
around two hours.
Paul will lead by demonstration,
gathering participants around a table to
watch close hand, take notes and
discuss his techniques and approaches.
He helps painters with their own work,
giving individual tuition, demonstrations,
offering helpful and technical advice.
