This be bright oil painting workshop is the perfect opportunity for those both interested in working and learning the foundations of oil painting, as well as working with bright and beautiful colours.
It aims to uplift you through exploration of heart warming and uplifting colours, whist teaching you a foundation of skills you’ll be able to apply to your own practice.
You will begin the workshop with introductions to the materials, the tutor, and each other, before diving into the gridding method to sketch and compose your piece. From there, you will explore finding your colour palette, then begin applying your oil paints.
Throughout the day Daisy will encourage you to explore the medium, allowing you to gain new skills at each stage of your painting, developing a foundational understanding of the oil painting process so you’ll be able to utilise them over a longer period of time at home.

Daisy is a self-taught, British artist and oil painter, currently exploring our relationship with nature through oil paintings, and journey from Birth to Rebirth.
Daisy discovered oil paints when she was 12, and had a fascination with hands, feet, and human skin, evolving into freelancing as a portrait painter. She took her creativity to University, to study Fine Art, developed a love for painting botanicals, delicate likeness to the humans, and returned to portraiture in the final year.
Daisy has participated in group shows, won Botanical Artist of the year, and was selected for the Clyde & Co Awards. She also briefly attended The Florence Academy of Art in Italy, after obsessing over the Renaissance craftsmanship. She then spent three years in the beautiful New Zealand, and took various commissions during her time there. Then relocated to Melbourne to work as a Personalisation Expert and Artisan for Louis Vuitton. This put her back in touch with creativity, and her own ideas were birthed.
