This course is tailored to the groups needs and offers both guided lessons and advice for self directed projects. It is basically a continuation of both the Acrylic and Oil painting courses and allows you to paint in either medium at your own level. Having said that, we also welcome those wanting to experiment in the areas of watercolour, inks and mixed media. Tonee has a wealth of knowledge in all of these areas.

This open studio time is specially suited to those wanting to focus on specific projects. Whether you are focussing on HSC Art, or entry into tertiary art schools, or you may just have a special project you need help with. Chris Horder is able to assist on all levels of ability, he will inject new life into the way you view and create your work. Chris will guide you through the creative process to help you get the most from your studio time.
