Watercolour Painting Holidays
Dates 2008
| 25 - 29 August | Watercolour Painting | £375 |
Our painting holidays are for all abilities; we purposefully do not take large numbers to allow our tutor to give you personalised instruction based upon your level of experience.
During the week you will work on a painting project during morning and afternoon sessions in the studio or outdoors, weather dependent.
Wednesday afternoon gives free time to explore on your own or visit a local attraction
Spend the evenings in our lounge with entertainment provided or, if you choose, continue to work on your project.
Your Tutor

Ian Sinclair trained at the Glasgow School of Art. He specialises in Acrylic painting but is also known for his work in Watercolour. He is best known for his Landscape paintings but takes commissions for portraits and animals. Another interest is cartoons and caricatures.
Ian is experienced teaching in both mediums to beginners and also the more experienced painters. His gentle manner and friendly style, love of landscape and nature, makes him a popular tutor as he brings out the best from those who work with him.
