Enjoy the experience of painting a landscape in Acrylics on a textured canvas with Chris Richbell.

Over two half days (that’s six hours of tuition) you’ll be painting onto a 10” x 12” canvas.

For those who have attended Chris Richbell’s previous course, you will have a chance to put into practice and progress the skills you’ve learnt before, and for those who have not experienced a class with Chris, you are in for a treat - new students are most welcome.

We will follow a step by step demonstrated approach and you  will learn and use a wide range of techniques in the process.

This small group allows for plenty of individual attention.

Chris is a fantastic teacher and helped us all to produce paintings we were proud of

About the tutor

Chris is a member and regular exhibitor with the Northampton Town and County Art Society and serves on their council. She paints mainly in watercolour or acrylic, and sometimes with mixed media or pastels. She is part of a group of painters from all over the country that annually enjoy painting together in Walberswick on the Suffolk coast. Painting outside whatever the weather, brings a whole new meaning to watercolour! Chris' work has been exhibited in London and nationally, and she has had work accepted by the Royal Academy.
