Step by step, of the process on the Pencil to Paint Layering course
The different stages of a students work. Ann had not really had a lot of experience in drawing and this was her first course under Claires guidance. The course is on average 8 weeks. A short drawing course before joining Layering sees each student manage this course with greater ease but not essential.
​Each stage is carefully explained and the student and has consistent input through the whole process. It is one of the most fascinating processes and highly successful in achieving a higher level of detail. 

There are two courses in the second term starting May 5th. 
Estuary Art Centre Wednesdays,  starts 5th May, 9:30 - 12:30pm
Warkworth Studio Thursdays, starts 6th May,  10 -12:30pm
