Capturing Light in the Beautiful Wye Valley in Watercolour

Paul Talbot Greaves

25th - 29th October 2020

Holidays Listing

Join Paul Talbot-Greaves on this

opportunity to paint in the Wye Valley.

We will sketch on location along the

River Wye at places such as Symonds

Yat and near Tintern Abbey.


We call capture the light in The Wye

Valley with the extremes of light and

dark across the valley and paint the

light and reflections on the river. Other

places where light and darks occur

with reflections on water that we may

go to are Cannop Ponds in the Forest

of Dean near to the hotel.


(This is a re-scheduled holiday from

earlier in the year as a result of the

restrictions in place at the time of the

lockdown)


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.
