Modern/All Media
Tutor: Carole Foster
Thursdays 9.30am – 12.30pm (First day of term Thursday, 10th October)
Cost: Each Term 2024 — $225

   

In this class Carole's objective is to free people up and let them "out of their box" or mind set, so they are able to connect with their own feelings and express themselves with enjoyment along their own creative path. During the course of this process, they will acquire technical skills and stretch their boundaries in the use of paint and other material in developing their ideas.

Watercolour — The poetry of Watercolour
Tutor: Peter Porteous
Fridays 10.00am – 12.30pm (First day of term Friday, 11th October)
Cost: Each Term 2024 — $195

While still touching on traditionalism and painting theory, the focus of this class is to explore a more casual, spontaneous, free-flowing and expressive forum.
The various applications of paint and water will create movement, which enhances the play of light, mood and atmosphere. This will be incorporated into various subjects. The essence of each student's unique style and creativity will therefore be absorbed into their work.
