Join Peter Woolley on this opportunity
to paint Castles and Canals of the Usk
Valley plus landscapes of
Monmouthshire in Watercolour.
We will paint along the Brecon and
Monmouth Canal at Goytre Wharf,
Castles such as Caldicott and/or Raglan,
the Monnow Bridge in Monmouth plus
Welsh Heritage Site, Blaenavon
Ironworks with its traditional cottages
and remnants of an industrial past. The
grounds around the hotel with the lake,
reflections, streams and trees with their
dappled sunlight make for a great
subject as well as painting landscapes,
valleys and lakes giving plenty of variety
of painting subjects.
Peter will show you how to simplify the
scene in front of you in order to get a
pleasing composition. He will guide you
through a scene by painting a step-by-
step demonstration for those who want
it in order to illustrate the key elements
of each part of the picture and how to
build up the picture. For those who wish
to paint their own scene he will give
guidance to each individual according to
what they require.
His approachable style of teaching will
enable you to get the most out of your
paintings as he will assist you in this
process. He will give you plenty of one-
to-one tuition and will demonstrate
many tips and techniques including the
importance of tone and colour. Peter
will work hard in order for you to
achieve your goals.
