The Art of Plein Air in Oils in the Heart of the Wye Valley
I can’t wait to have Roger here with us. His is a name so well known, he really needs no introduction and a list of his accolades reads like a dictionary, of oil painting exhibitions, awards, memberships and presidencies. His ability to capture any scene and impart this knowledge to his students is truly astounding.
We will study both the local landscape and cafe scenes en plein air. Time spent with Roger is a privilege for any artist. and not to be missed
