Live Online Portrait Painting Course 2023/24
Our live online art courses are based on the same courses as taught at Walton Hall. All lessons are aimed at helping artists to develop their skills and we cover all aspects of Traditional Art from basic drawing to glazing techniques.
” I have thoroughly enjoyed my year on the Realist Academy painting course. I realised that I needed expert help to improve my portrait skills and the course really delivered. As a complete beginner I felt comfortable with the well structured approach taught by Louis. Assignments done each week were essential in practicing the skills learned in class. I’m really proud of the portraits I have managed to produce during the course and one of them won first prize in an art exhibition. Something I would never have dreamed of a year ago! I would recommend the course to anyone wishing to improve their portrait skills or learn from scratch.”

Our mission statement
The principles taught at the Realist Academy are based on traditional art techniques. Even if you just learn the basics, you will see an improvement in your work. We have structured the programme to accommodate beginners as well as professionals looking to improve their skills. The goal of this course is to cultivate a confident approach backed up by some sure footed knowledge. Learning the right habits are key to developing a solid working practice which could improve your skills well beyond your current ability.
