Students can choose to bring two or three of their own
paintings for personal critique, or specific objects of interest to receive
feedback on the right approach to use, and mistakes to avoid when painting the
chosen subject matter. Class will conclude with a critique exhibition of
student and teacher’s works at week’s end.
All these are lovely paintings, that look so near to life. It is good to know that works can be shown to the experts to know about the mistakes and for improvements.
