Oil Foundations — 5 weeks · €259 · Max 10 people

A structured painting course for complete beginners or anyone who's been curious about oil but never known where to start.

Oil paint has a reputation for being complicated. Slow to dry, easy to overwork, a lot of unwritten rules. Most of that reputation is just what happens when no one shows you the basics properly.

Over five weeks you'll learn how oil actually works: how to mix it, move it, build it in layers  and finish with a painting you made yourself, start to finish.

The group stays small on purpose. Max 10 people, same faces each week. Enough space to actually learn.

What you'll do over 5 weeks:

Week 1: Get comfortable

Meet your materials, mix your first colours, and make some simple studies. Oil paint behaves differently to anything else. Week 1 is about understanding that, not fighting it.

Week 2: Build confidence

A series of quick paintings to loosen up, explore composition, and start feeling at home with the medium.

Week 3: Start your painting

Map out your composition and block in colour. The canvas is no longer empty.

Week 4: Add depth

Develop light, shadow, and texture. This is where oil paint really starts to show what it can do.

Week 5: Finish and make it yours

Individual guidance, final decisions, and a finished painting you actually want to keep.

What you'll need

Everything else is provided.

Good to know: This is not a drop-in class. Your spot is reserved across all 5 sessions. 

No experience needed, just show up!
