upcoming online seascape painting class

This Sunday I'll be painting live from the north coast of Spain and you can join me and paint along!

Class numbers and recording numbers are limited to 10 each to ensure a relaxed and intimate class.

Update : bookings closed. Join my mailing list if you'd like to know about the next online class.
