DELVING DEEPER – WITH DANI HUMBERSTONE 18th MAY, 17th JUNE, 13th JULY 2026

£190.00

A Three-Week Curious House Workshop Series

We are embracing the great outdoors for our next occasional series of classes. The focus of these series is a day spent painting en plien air beside a lake in the stunning Sussex countryside on 17th June. in preparation for this we will spend the morning of 18th May in our class room at The Bell, exploring tonal painting, with a particular focus on green, and how to paint leaves, branches and reeds. We will gather together again on 13th July to delve deeper into our landscape painting, adding layers using a glazing technique and adding any finishing touches to our work, ready for framing.

Join us for an inspiring series of three workshops over the summer months, designed to help you delve deeper into the art of oil painting with the wonderfully talented Dani. Across these immersive sessions, you’ll have the luxury of time to develop your technique, expand your understanding, and nurture your creative confidence.

Participants are encouraged (but never required!) to continue their practice between sessions.

Who This Series Is For

These sessions are perfect for anyone eager to explore the possibilities of oil painting, gain confidence with materials, and demystify the process in a friendly, supportive environment.

What to Bring

  • Your own oil paints, mediums, brushes and canvasses. For those who haven’t been before we will supply a list of materials

  • For the en plein air day bring money! Food and refreshments are not provided for this day but we can buy a light lunch, teas and coffees and beer at the delightful tap room (the beer being very popular last time)

What to Expect

  • Two relaxed, uplifting creative mornings in the Curious House studio

  • One full day at Lakedown Tap Room with seating, cover should we require, toilets and amenities.

  • Expert guidance from Dani, with plenty of individual attention

  • Time to immerse yourself deeply in your work

  • A friendly group of like-minded creatives

  • A meaningful final artwork you’ll feel proud of.
