One student commented........"I last did any serious painting when I was at school. One year ago I had the chance to fulfil a long-term desire to learn to paint. When I first joined Rob’s class I used watercolours but I found them very frustrating. However, when cleaning out a relative’s house I found some oil paints. I started to learn how to use them and discovered a love for colour and for experimenting with paint. Rob and the others in the class are very supportive. Having made a good start with my work I often got stuck, afraid to spoil what I had achieved in trying to make further progress. With Rob’s help I have learned to push past this point, I am no longer afraid to experiment or make mistakes. Learning to paint has opened up great pleasure for me and sparked off many ideas I want to try out. " £72 for six sessions booked in advance. Students provide own materials. Friday mornings 9am.-midday. Friday afternoons 1pm.-4pm. Painting classes at Pegasus studios, Griffin Mill, Thrupp near Stroud.
