IMPRESSIONS 2020 CLASSES
The Leisure Artist
These classes are suitable for the beginner & hobby artist who is looking to
develop their creative and technical skills in a relaxed setting while enjoying
the company of others.
Students can bring their own choice of project to
the class, or work with Glenys to define their
specific interests and needs then embark upon
an artwork which will progress their skills.
Classes are kept small to allow for plenty of tutor
attention. Pay-as-you-go or pre-pay for the term
at a discounted price – the choice is yours.
Just bring any art materials you have for your project or if you are new to
painting and drawing, just come along with your ideas and any images you
may like to work from, and Glenys will provide guidance for the most
suitable materials which can be purchased at the time.
All media are catered for, except watercolours – although you are welcome
to “dabble” with watercolours, Glenys prefers not to teach in this medium.
Fees:
You will receive a 10% discount on all art
materials from Impressions purchased
during your course.
• $22 per class pay-as-you-go
(BYO materials) or
• $20 per class ($180 for 9-week

SHORT COURSES AND WORKSHOPS PROGRAMME
These courses and workshops are held on Monday mornings, from 10am –
noon.
SHORT COURSES
Introduction to Painting
This short course is designed to introduce students to the materials and
processes to get them starting to paint in acrylics.
Students will be given guidance to: -
• Plan a simple image,
• Prime and seal a canvas with acrylic gesso,
• Complete a tonal sketch and underpainting,
• Learn basic skills in colour mixing and manipulation,
• Use both wet and dry brush techniques,
• Apply glazes of thin transparent paint to build deep, rich colour,
• Add reflections and shadows to indicate the direction of light on the
subject,
• Discuss how and when to varnish completed acrylic paintings safely.
By the end of this course, students will have completed a small painting to
take away. Acrylics have been chosen because of their quick drying time;
however, the content of the course will provide a sound basis for continuing
into other media if so desired.
• 10am – 12 noon, Mondays February 10, 17, 24, March 2, 9, 16.
• $150.00 fee includes all materials used
• Protective clothing is recommended.
(“Oils Made Simple is another short course that is suitable for anyone
wishing to extend the knowledge and experience gained in this course.)
5
Oils Made Simple
This course is designed to de-mystify how to paint with oils effectively and
safely following the rules of oil painting. As oils take time to become “touch-
dry” the course is scheduled over 4 weeks to allow participants to complete
a simple, but effective painting.
Course content includes: -
• The foundations and principles behind the rules of oil painting;
• Safe painting practices when working with solvents;
• Creation of a value under-painting;
• Building a series of stable oil glazes to achieve luminous and rich
colours;
• Direct and indirect painting techniques including the use of painting
knives;
• Guidelines for varnishing.
By the end of the course, students will have completed a small painting to
take away.
• 10am – 12 noon, Mondays May 4, 11, 18 and 25.
• $100 fee includes all materials used for 4 x 2-hour classes
• Protective clothing is recommended
Tantalising Texture
Grounds, Mediums, Techniques
Impasto painting has been around for a long time, but never have we had
such a wide array of products to help us. Texture can be subtle or a strong
feature of your work – whatever is appropriate.
In this 2-session short course, students will experience a wide range of
possibilities, suitable for whatever medium they are working in – from
acrylics and oils to watercolours and inks. We will explore how to set up a
textural painting by choosing an impasto ground and then use a range of
products and techniques to a sense of a tactile surface which reflects the
nature of the subject portrayed.
• 10am – 12 noon, Mondays June 8 & 15.
• $50.00 includes all materials used.
• Protective clothing is recommended.
6
Making the Most of Acrylics
This course is for anyone interested in comparing different ways of painting
using acrylics and a range of acrylic mediums. Students will choose a subject
to paint, then paint that using up to 5 different approaches and the
products that enable that to be achieved. Then the paintings will be
compared to select the one which achieves the look and level of satisfaction
you want.
Painting approaches taken may include: -
1. Alla Prima (Direct)
2. Glazing (Indirect)
3. Painting on an absorbent ground
4. Modelling the form with moulding paste
5. Assorted Acrylic Media
This course allows you to experience a range of acrylic products and
processes so that you can select those which suit your style best.
• 10am – 12 noon Mondays 22 & 29 June 2020
• Fee: $50.00 incl. all materials used.
• Protective clothing is recommended.
WORKSHOPS
Image Transfer Using Acrylic Mediums
This workshop will explore a simple method for transferring images which
have been copied or printed into a painting or collage that you are
completing.
Acrylic mediums will be used to transfer images onto an artwork surface to
become part of the completed image. The special charm of this simple
process is the “aged” look achieved.
This is a workshop to be playful. Whether you consider yourself to be very
creative – or just wish you were – this is a workshop which caters for all.
7
When the session is over, you will be able to apply your own creative style
to create interesting pieces.
• 10am – 12 noon, Monday 30 March
• $25.00 fee includes all materials used
• Protective clothing is recommended
Playing with Pencils
To draw means “to pull” – hence the correct was to hold a pencil enables
the artist to “pull” marks. This workshop will give you the opportunity to
learn about the ranges of both dry and water-soluble pencils as well as the
tools and accessories available to use with them. Students will explore a
range of pencil techniques, the various types of pencils, both wet and dry,
as well as the types of mark-making that are possible. Accessories including
papers, water brushes, sharpening and erasing tools will be used.
• 10am – 12 noon, Monday April 6
• $25.00 fee includes all materials used.
• Protective clothing is recommended.
Alternative Workshop Topics
Students can elect to cover any of the following workshop subjects as
individuals as a student in one of the Leisure Artist Classes so long as there
is a vacancy and notification of the workshop topic selected is given when
booking the class.
