Short Courses
We have a fantastic list of over twenty short courses taught by our roster of many of the most respected artists working in Cornwall today. These courses are attended in person, many of which take place on the dramatic West Cornwall coastline within a few minutes drive in our minibus from the art school. Our in-person courses all use the light filled Victorian school building as their base where you arrive each day for a 10am start. Courses end at 4pm each day. Courses range from outdoor landscape painting to figure courses, still life and more experimental courses. You can find a short film illustrating each short course on the course pages below to really get a feel of what each course contains.
