WELCOME TO ART-ON-LOCATION

_______________________________________________

CHILDREN | TWEEN  | TEENS| ADULTS

Improve your drawing & painting skills | Learn how to relax and escape into a painting.

Students learn painting and drawing courses in various mediums:

• training the creative eye,
• simplifying processes,
• enhancing skills and technique,
• Portfolio Preparation.

Whether you are a novice, intermediate or advanced artist, our classes are small for one-on-one instruction and all demos are instructed by professional, local working artist, Dawn-Angela Seeley, author and tour facilitator to Tuscany.

Courses incorporate foundation fundamentals of composition, line, form, light and colour, into every course or lesson, enabling students to pick up wherever you personally left off in your painting life experience. You will be gently guided back into learning, growth, technique and personal style. Groups are small enough for one-on-one time with the instructor and group critiques are encouraged to strengthen and fortify not only your painting but also your confidence.

Our courses take place in-studio and en plein air/outdoors at the locations in Stratford Ontario, Oakville Ontario and Tuscany Italy:
