I first came across Dale's watercolor classes in the spring of 2020.  He was doing some Watercolour Escape Saturdays on Facebook Live.  After following along with his painting, I was determined to learn his style.  He has a wonderful, loose method of interpreting scenes and communicating that to his students.  I like to think I am "playing" more when I paint in Dale's style, and I feel I have the tools to interpret my own scenes and get pleasing results.

Program Description: 
This course is vital to all students wishing to pursue a successful art career, as well as students who wish to improve their drawing or painting skills. 

This course begins with Fundamentals 101, which stresses drawing and composition, then continues with Fundamentals 102, stressing color theory and application. In 103, students put into practice theories and applications learned in 101 and 102 through several landscape painting studies. Each assignment is designed specifically for both the beginning fine art student as well as intermediate students. This course covers the basics of color theory and practice, composition, linear perspective, and many of the various techniques of painting. Following the tradition of the Academy method of instruction, all three levels are taught in the same classroom, which encourages reinforcement of theories and practices within all levels. 

Fundamentals 201: All students that have completed the Fundamentals 101, 102, and 103 can continue with the 201 class to choose areas that they wish to improve.
All assignments will be individually designed to help the student in the area or areas that they choose. Each assignment will be incorporated with painting landscape, seascape, still life or figures.
  • Due to limited classroom space, this class is limited to 12 students. To reserve a place in the class, tuition must be paid in full.
  • This class meets in our ground floor studio in the coach house.
