Short Term Weekend Course in Painting & Sketching (Adults) The natural world around us is full of objects shapes, sizes, forms, colours, and lines, firing the impulse of our ancestors to depict them visually. Gradually, the human mind began to transform even thoughts and feelings into fantastic imagery. However, even to paint abstract forms, the journey in a painting and sketching course must begin by observing and representing nature. The Short Term Painting & Sketching course is designed to give expression to one’s imagination through visual principles like proportion, symmetry and rhythm.

Textures and colour will be added later to the practice to add vividness to an artistic work. Eventually, one can explore emotional meaning in images by representing them with a brush in the painting classes…
