ART CLASSES & SUMMER
WORKSHOPS
|
|
Claude
Reynier holds art classes and Summer Workshops for people
with all levels of experience, from beginners to professional.
All drawing and painting techniques are covered –
oil, watercolours, acrylic, gouache, charcoal, pastel...
The classes are held outside, where the techniques of perspective
are shown, and inside, with still-life classes. Students
learn how to bring watercolours to life, to draw the correct
perspective outlines in charcoal or pencil, to visualise
the subject in relation to the canvas, how to put that final
finishing touch to the oil painting, and more. Learning
all the techniques with Claude Reynier mean that students
who attend the Summer Workshop will leave with a much improved
set of artistic skills.

|
At
the end of the course, the students take with them two paintings
that they have created during the week, together with a
Certificate of Attendance at the Claude Reynier Summer Workshop.
The Workshops are held in Margon, a picturesque historical
village, situated about 6 miles from Pézenas and
18 miles from the Mediterranean.
The Summer Workshop is a five-day course, Monday to Friday,
with the possibility to add a further five days, space permitting.
Times are 9.00am-12 noon and 3.00pm-6.00pm. This schedule
may be changed at the request of students. |
