Courses and Demonstrations

"Curlew Cottage". As the name suggests the house is named after seeing so many Curlews in winter nearby. Birdlife is prolific with the surrounding nature reserve, marshes, saltflats and open countryside, plus an awareness by local residents who assist the wildlife both in habitat and feed. The especially designed and evolving artists' gardens and gallery are open ( by appointment ) freely to the public during summer months and offer a delightful opportunity to either paint or simply enjoy the flowers beds, art gallery and big greenhouse full of sub tropical plants. Situated in the pretty village of Theddlethorpe not far from the attractive market town of Louth and seaside resort of Mablethorpe. There are also facilities for individuals or groups to enjoy private tuition if so wish.

A recommendation from the Art Group of Deeping St.James after one of my demonstrations in mixed medium

"After many years of attending demonstrations, I have to say that this is one of the most inspirational and interesting I have ever seen. Delivered in an amusing and fact-filled way - Peter chats whilst he works, dropping nuggets of art-related information as he goes. Come back soon Peter!"`

Right - you can now stop blushing!
Seriously though, it was interesting from start to finish - we were very impressed. We hope to visit you in the warmer weather - either to work with you in your studio or paint in your garden - as you have so generously offered. Anne Smart

A recommendation from Jane Coward - Community Services Development Officer Grimsby Central Library - after my demonstration in watercolour and oils over acrylics at Cleethorpes Library.

"Everyone had a wonderful morning at Cleethorpes Library on 15 April at Peter Wood's art demo. 'Thoroughly enjoyed it' and 'excellent' were just two of the comments made by members of the public. All said they would come to see Peter again so North East Lincolnshire Library Service will be inviting him back soon".



 

As an experienced Teacher and Artist I am able to offer short demonstrations and organise courses for Art groups, clubs, societies and individuals. Demonstrations are usually under the titles of --

"A complete Introduction to Oil Painting," "A complete Introduction to Pastels," "Many methods of Drawing," "An Introduction to Watercolour techniques," ," "Mixed Medium - Acrylic Inks, Watercolour, Pastel, Pencil". Most are supported with full sets of notes. Or, the more popular, groups may choose almost any medium and subject matter for a two hour demonstration.

A limited amount of Workshops and Courses can be arranged, according to requirements, needs and the subject.
