Absolutely loved the 2 day introduction to oil painting. Marc was a fantastic tutor and was encouraging and fun whilst helping the class to learn techniques to improve our painting ability. I was amazed at how much I was able to learn and achieve in just 2 days, and the confidence I built whilst painting 2 pictures over the course. The setting is lovely and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Marc if you are looking to enrol in a course.

Wow! What a great tutor and a fantastic painting experience! I was given a 5 lesson oil course with Marc as a birthday present from my husband as I had been promising to paint his favourite scene for a long time and just hadn’t ‘got round to it’ as I was scared of it! A lesson or two with Marc and I was launched into a big version of the scene under his brilliant tutelage and I am so pleased with the result I can’t wait for my husband to see it! I will definitely be enrolling again shortly for more of Marc’s patient, expert tuition. Thank you Marc!

Two day Introduction to Oil painting course: after not painting for 17 years I was excited to book on. The way in which Marc taught us in stages was fantastic such as components of paint, materials and the color wheel. Then logical stages of building up the painting. He made everything very relevant and easy to understand. The passion for painting is reflected in his teaching style. Marc is very patient and I thank him for such a great experience and paintings to treasure.

This was a brilliant experience and an excellent gift which I received for Christmas 2018. Marc was very knowledgeable and a helpful tutor. The class was very chilled and before we knew it, five hours had gone by. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has an interest in art/painting/Bob Ross.

Just completed a weekend course with Marc. Great teaching, great location and superb value for money. I have learned more in 2 days than I would in a whole term at night school. Thanks Marc for a great painting experience.

Marc is the most talented art tutor I have met. He is patient and explains everything easily, following the masters' techniques in a methodical manner. From all my learning experiences I can truly say Marc has helped me the most. He also supplies quality materials at far better than normal retail prices .He is very encouraging and supportive at all stages and will work at the correct pace to suit each person. He also supplies all materials for his courses, and his studio is situated in a very lovely , peaceful area. Very flexible as well. Well worth the price he charges, you will get far more out of his courses than you would expect.

Cannot rate this highly enough! When I booked on to the introduction to oil painting course I was a bit nervous about how clueless I was! I needn’t have worried. I was instantly put at ease and really enjoyed the course. Mark was fantastic- very informative and patient. I will definitely be booking more of his courses in the future.

Marc Turner

My joy for art began at a very young age when I was inspired by my fathers drawings. This inspiration led me to begin practicing in watercolours.

I specifically remember looking out towards the hills at Hagenohsen to paint the beautiful landscape in 1984 and realising that not many hobbies could beat this one. From this point on my interest in painting and artwork intensified.

I continued to paint in watercolour with a little dabbling in other mediums for many years, and later decided to take oil painting more seriously and improve my skills. I attended some good courses and practiced my painting daily until I felt good enough to call myself an artist, I have never looked back.

I now look forward to passing on my knowledge and teaching anyone that wishes to develop their painting skills.
