August Seasonal Landscape Painting Course - Wednesday Mornings

About this event

August Seasonal Landscape Painting Course – Reflections of Summer Light Inspired by the quiet beauty of late summer, this atmospheric composition captures sunlight filtering through a canopy of trees and shimmering across the surface of still water below. Throughout this four-week course, we’ll explore how to create the illusion of glowing light, luminous reflections and atmospheric depth using layered acrylic techniques. The composition is built around the contrast between rich shadow and brilliant light, with warm sunlight breaking through the foliage and dancing across the water’s surface. Over four weekly sessions, we’ll explore how to capture the magic of evening light within the landscape, using layered acrylic techniques to create depth, luminosity, and a strong sense of place. You’ll learn how to paint glowing skies, atmospheric effects, sunlit meadows, and distant trees, while developing confidence in composition, colour mixing, texture, and expressive mark-making. As with all my landscape courses, I’ll be sharing many of the techniques I use within my own professional painting practice, helping you create a finished artwork that captures the fleeting beauty of a summer meadow at sunset. Working in acrylics on 45 × 38 cm board, you will be guided step by step through my layered organic landscape process, learning how to build natural meadow depth, create luminous light effects and develop expressive texture through grasses and wildflowers.
