The Norfolk Painting School
Oil Painting Courses. Gallery. Specialist Materials
Welcome to The Norfolk
Painting School
the place to
learn how to paint in oils.

Whether you're looking to include a
weekend of  leisure painting to your
Norfolk holiday, or are a dedicated
artist in search of in-depth instruction,
I've got courses to suit you.

All of the courses here have been
written by me and constantly revised
to provide you with clear, practical
and achievable oil painting
instruction. Each course day starts
with a group theory session (using
slides, pictures and other sources),
then I demonstrate how it is done,
before finally helping you paint it at
your easel.

Our proven teaching process of
explain- demonstrate- help  is only
practicable because we keep the
classes small, and has helped
hundreds of students to make
significant changes to their painting
skills after just a few days tuition. Our
'Essential Oil' courses assume no
previous knowledge of painting
whatsoever and have helped many  
nervous beginners become confident
learners in just a weekend. If you
have any worries about which course
would suit you then the best place to
start is our
FAQ page here.

of work I paint  and the School why

Forum and interactive
blog

All courses include lunch and all
materials for use on the day(s) and
an opportunity to buy specialist
materials at School prices.
Students hard at
work in the studio
;
everybody gets a
professional easel, and
ample space to work.
These 40x 30 inch
canvases are our way
of building your
confidence with oils
and are huge fun to
work on!
The kind of work we do here
is demonstrated by Ingrid, (shown
here in our previous studio). Our
students love the way we actually
teach them how to paint, rather than
just let them get on with it or watch
non interactive demonstrations.
Gift vouchers are available for any of our
courses, and for any amount above £10.  To
