3-Day Landscape Painting Workshop with Dave Groom

This workshop is aimed at people of all levels. The idea of the workshop is to focus on the natural landscape and learn to see it in your own artistic way. Dave Groom has conducted several drawing and painting workshops and will guide you with techniques and ways to approach and construct you works of art.

Dave Groom is a professional landscape artist who has been painting for over 20 years. His work primarily focusses on the landscape that surrounds his studio on the edge of Lamington National Park. He works in graphite, charcoal, pastel and oils, all of which he is happy to teach you techniques for.
