From Photographs to Painting the Landscape

Summer School week long course 4th - 8th August 2025

Contact Oxfordshire Arts and Crafts for details and to book.
Many of us have the best intentions to fill a sketchbook with drawings and ideas, while on the move or on holiday but can end up with a couple of doodles and a lot of photos. This course is about using photography as an information gathering tool to inform our next steps towards a more abstract finished image.

BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Bookings are made on payment of the full amount. 50% of that amount functions as a non-returnable deposit. No refunds are available for cancellations 21 days or later before the course begins.

Places are limited (depending on the venue), and allocated in the order I receive them. If a workshop is already full, I will return your payment but keep your name on a waiting list. In the unlikely event that I will have to cancel a course, whether due to insufficient bookings or otherwise, I will let you know as soon as possible and refund 100% of the fee paid, with no further liability.

Participants attend these courses entirely at their own risk.

Online courses - numbers are capped for these courses too so that there is opportunity for some 1:1 feedback and support. Therefore the payment conditions remain the same.
