Brief Description:
This course will provide instruction and support on how to compose and paint in watercolours.
Do you have a favourite artist or painting you would like to copy? Or you can choose your own images to paint either from photographs, paintings by other artists or your own objects. The course will cover background information on different art movements, how to examine a painting and how to approach actually painting it.
Instruction will be given on starting a painting, mixing colours accurately and use of brushwork to get the effects you want, ending up with a painting in the style of your choice.
Course Aims
Learners will explore design and composition including the use of colour, values and masses to appreciate how and why choices were made by artists when creating works of art. This knowledge will be applied to a painting to develop this appreciation and confidence in the longer term.
Previous Experience and Knowledge Needed?
None.
Learning Outcomes:
1. Prepare a surface for painting
2. Select an appropriate approach to drawing as a start point.
3. Select colours for accurate colour matching.
4. Recognise the different stages of a painting.
5. Use brushwork to achieve desired effects.
6. See the importance of value, masses and edges.
7. Use preparatory studies as a problem solving tool.
Extra costs on the course for example text book, materials or equipment:
It is advised that learners supply their own surfaces to paint on (canvas, board, paper). A detailed materials list will be discussed during the first lesson.
On completion of this course, what might your next steps be?
Adult Learn and Train offer courses through-out the year.
Try similar courses or maybe look at learning something completely new.
You will find provision on some Saturday and Sundays, you will also find courses available in the day and evening at different venues in Cambridge. Courses vary in length from one-off sessions to 10 weeks or more

Drawing Skills Brief Description:
Drawing skills can be done for pleasure, relaxation or with a more defined purpose. The course will explore what drawing is, what it can be for and why we do it. We will cover practical aspects of drawing mark making, creating the illusion of 3 Dimensions, the use of pattern and design and the formal arrangement of tone and shape to create an image. We will explore colour, different media, the theoretical side of drawing and how to look, examine and see what is actually there.
Previous Experience needed:
No previous experience necessary, the course is designed for all levels.
Aims of the course:
- The course will enable learners to see in new ways, changing perception of the visual world
- Develop a visual language through experimentation and widen understanding of what drawing is

You will be able to progress at your own pace and will build confidence accordingly. In summary, this is a skills based course intended to equip you with essential skills for any genre or style.
The course is priced per 10 weeks (one term); you may find, as many learners do, that you will want to continue for more than 10 weeks; if this is the case you will be offered the opportunity to re-enrol and pay for another term.

• Learn and apply new terminology to express ideas and intentions
• Identify forms and masses
• Experiment with application techniques
• Explore basic colour theory and how it connects to shape, form and mood
Extra costs on the course for example text book, materials or equipment:
Some materials will be provided for the first lesson, but papers, brushes and paints will be discussed and a ‘shopping list’ will be provided for those who do not yet have their own.
For the first session you will need to bring:
Yourself. Materials will be available to use although if you have any artist materials you are welcome to bring them along.

Brief Description:
The course is designed to enable you to explore the fundamentals of the art of still life. This will be an exciting opportunity for you to learn about composition and balance, colour and mood and of course, the use of watercolour and oils to achieve a pleasing and satisfying painting. You will learn new skills about planning, experimentation and the use of shapes to paint a dynamic and interesting picture.
Previous Experience and Knowledge Needed?
No previous knowledge is necessary as the course is designed for all levels
Learning Outcomes:
By the end of the course, you will have the opportunity to:
- Set up a still life arrangement comprised of balanced elements
- Complete small scale thumbnail and value studies
- Select a colour scheme to achieve the effect you want
- Complete a painting in either monochrome or more than two colours
Extra costs on the course for example textbook, materials or equipment
No extra costs are involved as the necessary basic materials and equipment are provided.
For the first session you will need to bring:
If you have your own pencils, brushes, paints and paper please bring these. You should also bring any small scale objects you would like to paint; this can include photographs, books, fruit, flowers- anything you are interested in. A still life will be set up which will be optional.
A note on photographs- if you choose to photograph your own still life to work from, please ensure it has good directional light which shows good light on one side and shadows on the opposite. This makes the painting much more impactful.
On completion of this course, what might your next steps be?
The aim of the course is to increase confidence so that you will feel able to explore either still life or painting in more depth, either on your own or an another course.
Adult Learn and Train offer courses through-out the year.
Try similar courses or maybe look at learning something completely new.
You will find provision on some Saturday and Sunday’s, you will also find courses available in the day and evening at different venues in Cambridge. Courses vary in length from one-off sessions to 10 weeks or more
