A superb art teacher!

" Peter is a superb art teacher and an interesting guy.

I employed him to run a series of Paint-with-Pete classes as an event for the Ord Valley Muster. His pupils were well satisfied and asked that he return again next year.

In just 3 hours he had them all producing a frame-able oil painting of a Master.

Peter is not only a great teacher, but also the author of excellent instruction manuals on painting and classical guitar playing. I recommend him to you highly. " - Bruce Livett - www.zebrarock.biz/.

  2. Blocking in the tones and basic colours on the canvas.
  3. Adding textured layers of colour and blending
  4. Refining highlights
