New Paint and Mix Colours Session 21st August

Cindy is starting up a new session of her Paint and Mix Colours course on the 21st of August.

If you’ve been thinking of diving into paint and colour then this course is a great way to get up and running.

I know from personal experience that knowing how to mix colours properly can save lots of time, not to mention lots of very expensive paint!

Have fun meeting up with all the other Pyjama Time Drawers and Painters!

Courses Full – but keep an eye out for new sessions

Posted May 25, 2009 by Stuart

New course sessions for ‘Draw In Your Pyjamas’ and ‘Shade In Your Pyjamas’ have filled up on Drawspace.com even before we had a chance to post the details here on paintpj.com!

You’ll notice that many of the course sessions currently running have not been publicly advertised for enrolment either here or on Drawspace.com. This is because most courses are pre-filled by our ongoing students directly re-enrolling into successive units.

Courses do tend to fill well before the start date of the course itself, so it’s wise to secure your place early.  Students who are already studying with us do get first priority on places in new course sessions, so if you are keen to jump on board with us and start learning how to draw and paint keep an eye out for new sessions as they become available.
