Adult Extension Art Class.

To kick off 2026 we’ll be looking at portraiture. This will build on structure, concepts and interpretation. to keep fees viable we will be working from photos, mirrors and sometimes each other ( the latter for quick sittings only, and only if participant feels happy to do so!)

Participants with different levels of experience and technical skills work together. The focus is on drawing, painting, and mixed media. There is built-in flexibility with the program and approach. Each term a program outline is distributed as a guide for the term but is often adapted as the term progresses

A sound understanding of colour and painting techniques is a prerequisite for this group. Directed activities are aimed at consolidation and extension.

A “Studio” option is always available for advanced students. Many Advanced (or Studio Level) students undertake the Studio option regardless of the directed activity scheduled. Ongoing students may decide to keep working on a previous project and be mentored.

“Studio” refers to a mentoring approach. It does not mean that the tutor will conduct individual classes for “Studio” students. Only on days programmed as “Studio”, tutors will prioritise mentoring of individual activities. On other days, tutors will endeavour to assist as much as possible, but tutored activities will take priority.

This class runs concurrently with the Building Basics Course. An advantage of this format is that some students who have missed out on some areas of basics can choose to join the Beginners Group for a term.
