Painting Classes Graaff-Reinet
Weekly painting classes.
Beginners welcome!
Hello. My name is Tracy and I am a landscape painter who lives in Adendorp.
I teach a painting class once a week on a Wednesday from 3pm – 5pm. A Saturday class is also available for those who work during the week.
What you’ll learn:
The fundamentals of landscape painting: value, colour, perspective and composition.
How to use value studies to effectively plan your paintings and increase your chances of a successful painting.
How to use a limited palette to create more harmonious paintings.
How to create effects of light and shadow with colour temperature and value.
Beginners are very welcome. Anyone can paint if they want to and are willing to practice.
Paint in oil or acrylic paint, your choice. Acrylic is a cheaper way to get started. You will need to bring your own art supplies.
R200 per person per class

FAQs
I can’t draw a stick figure. Is this class for me?
Yes. Drawing and painting are learned skills that improve with practice. I will teach you the practical skills that you need to be an artist.
Do I need everything on the Art supplies list to start?
No. You don’t need all the brushes and all the different surfaces to paint on to start with. Come to your first class with a soft (4B) pencil and some cartridge paper or a sketchbook. If you already have paint and brushes, bring them along and we can discuss what you will need next.
Where do you get all the things on the Art supplies list?
If you want to buy everything on the list, visit the Art Savings Club online.
I am looking for local sources of art supplies in Graaff-Reinet. If you know of any good places, please let me know.
How much does the class cost?
I charge R200 a class, and ask for a monthly commitment to classes. In other words, I will invoice you at the beginning of each month for the month’s worth of classes. That works out at R800 or R1000 a month, depending on whether there are four or five classes in the month.
The class price does not include art supplies. You will need your own art supplies to continue your practice and finish work in your own time.
Where is the class held?
I will let you know the venue when you book. The venue will change in the next couple of weeks.
How do I join the class?
Please either email or WhatsApp me if you would like more information, or would like to join the class.
