“Painting is not the slavish copying of an object but the grasping of a harmony between several
interactions…a powerful organising mind is the best aid to sensation in the realisation of a work
of art.”
Cézanne’s statement evokes the creative spirit and philosophy of the course. Working
directly from a life model, a pose will be set for the duration of the week, giving students the
opportunity for sustained perceptual concentration. All levels including beginners encouraged
with individual one-to-one tuition.
