PAINT THE VALE OF USK

WATERCOLOUR/ACRYLIC Paint landscapes, castles and canals in the Vale of Usk


About This Course

2 - 6 JUNE 2025 We will paint along the Brecon and Monmouth Canal at places such as Goytre Wharf, Castles such as Caldicott and/or Raglan, bridges such as the Monnow Bridge in Monmouth plus Welsh Heritage Sites such as Blaenavon Ironworks with it's traditional cottages and remnants of an industrial past. The grounds around the hotel with the lake, reflections, streams and trees with their dappled sunlight make for a great subject as well as painting landscapes, valleys and lakes giving plenty of variety of painting subjects. With Paul you will sketch and take photographs on site, where we can concentrate on composition finding and absorb subjects, before returning to the studio to work on a finished painting. Although the studio time is more controlled and comfortable, Paul still likes to use a loose, rapid approach to painting, usually completing a piece in around two hours. Paul will lead by demonstration, gathering participants around a table to watch close hand, take notes and discuss his techniques and approaches. He helps painters with their own work, giving individual tuition, demonstrations, offering helpful and technical advice.
