Monday to Friday
Identify the three fundamental parts of colour
– hue, saturation and value, learning how to
manipulate them to increase your sensitivity
to colour. We will start by working on exercises
and studies from still life, later developing an
‘in depth’ piece, working from still life/
landscape/ sketches and photographs. There
will be plenty of opportunity to build on skills
and understanding you already have and to
make representational or more abstracted
work. The aim is to enjoy the process of making
the decisions, the research and the unpicking
as well as the building of ideas. You will need
acrylic paint although as the week progresses
there will be an option to use other media.
There will be a £2 materials charge – all other
requirements will be on the ‘to bring’ list.

JANE STROTHER studied
painting at Bath Academy of Art and
has worked as a painter, illustrator,
printmaker and teacher. Today she
works from her studio in Oxford and
in spite of the distance from the sea,
the coast is a frequent subject, with
the aim of conveying the mood at a
time of day or season by her use of
colour. She teaches widely, privately
and for the local authority, and to all
ages, and enjoys the interaction
between it and her own practice.
