Steve Hall

7th - 11th June 2020

Holidays Listing

Paint in the historic City of Wells and

surrounding Somerset countryside

with Steve Hall where you 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.

Steve will use his friendly and relaxed

approach to help you improve your

watercolour painting and create those

simple yet dynamic images that he

admires in the works of Edward Seago

and Edward Wesson.

There will be the opportunity for you

to complete two pictures a day under

Steve's careful guidance. He will work

alongside you helping you to achieve

your goals. Steve's style is one of

simplicity, yet based on observation of

shapes and tonal values.

His objective will be to encourage you

to capture the scene before you with

as little fuss as possible but with

awareness of the important shapes

and forms that describe the view. By

following his advice your work will take

on a more dynamic appearance leading

to that 'wow' factor that we all seek in

our painting.
