2 day painting workshops at Old Oaks
One-to-one* 1 or 2 day painting workshops held at Old Oaks campsite, nr Glastonbury, Somerset - open to guests and local residents of Somerset.
*Previously, workshops have been in groups and took place in Old Oaks TV room. As this is no longer possible, one-to-one sessions will take place either in Michael's caravan awning (or outside if weather permits) or on/in your pitch/awning if preferred.
Whether you're an absolute beginner, improver or advanced painter, our well known, Sussex artist - Michael Carter, can offer his expert help and advice while you paint in the tranquility of the beautiful Somerset countryside.
A perfect opportunity to relax & learn.

About the artist
Michael and his wife, Yvonne, have been visiting the Old Oaks as much valued guests for over 25 years. Michael's background is as a senior university lecturer and so has done his fair share of teaching. He is an active member of several art societies across the south of England, where he gives demonstrations, lectures and workshops.
His pictures in watercolour, oil, pastel and even miniatures have become widely recognised and his animal and bird studies are in the hands of many private collections throughout England, France and Belgium, via national and international exhibitions as well as commissions. Michael just loves to paint!
