Most of my weekend courses come with all materials provided as part of the cost, which means you can take the paints / pastels home with you afterwards - all you need to bring with you on the weekend is yourself and a photo to work from on the second day!

I only use the finest Artists quality materials on my courses as I strongly believe that Art education should be as much about informing students about the best tools & materials to buy and the advantages of using them as it is about techniques.

The usual course structure is to spend day one learning the basics of portraiture through several simple exercises that will teach you things like facial geometry, shading structure and colours.

On the second day you will produce a full portrait from a photo of your own choosing, putting into practice all that you learned on day one, and with myself guiding you throughout the whole process to make sure you achieve the results you want.

Excellent! very useful techniques, lots of one to one help and advice, well structured and very good printed course materials - will be brilliant to refer back to.

Graham has a superb eye and you can tell his techniques are very well practiced and perfected, his genius is in how well he passes them onto others, making them feel confident and empowered to work better in the future.
