It’s been heartening and inspiring to see so many social media posts about the Seawhite community of artists throwing themselves into their practice. If you would like an adrenaline shot of creativity at the start of 2021, we have a growing catalogue of pre-recorded online courses that you can download and start using straight away. Click here to watch a short taster film of our online courses. The link will also take you to our website where you can search through the online catalogue and find something that sparks your interest. Here at the Seawhite studio, we have lots of new courses for the Spring that we are excited to be sharing with you! Next week we are looking forward to Katie Sollohub running her wonderful EMBODIED DRAWING course, which she will follow up with a pre-recorded sketchbook based course – THE MUSEUM OF SELF: KEEPING A VISUAL DIARY – later this month. But for now, the focus of this newsletter is PAINTING THE EVERYDAY – a new live-streamed course, led by Simon Carter from his home-studio at the end of January. |

Painting the Everyday | Live-streamed Online Course | Tutored by Simon Carter |26-28 January 2021 | £120 Image credit: Noah Carter Painting the Everyday uses the everyday objects we all have around the house as source material for painting. This three day online course is a celebration of drawing and painting familiar everyday objects in the setting of your own home. Taking these familiar and often overlooked household objects and - through a process of dynamic and energetic drawing and bold improvisations in paint, - reclaiming them as subject matter for painting. The course will aim to give a fresh view of the ordinary. Students will consider how being bold and energetic in their drawing maintains a freshness of vision. Simon will encourage students to seek a confident and free approach to the subject, and find ways of working that express the excitement of observation. Although based on household objects, the lessons learnt need not be restricted to still life and could easily be applied to any aspect of painting. It is not only an opportunity to celebrate those cherished and familiar household objects and environment, but its impact could resonate far beyond the course and enrich your future practice.
