What is SAMS-art ?
The progressive, step-by-step sessions provide a structure within which to learn new skills. Below are just some of the paintings SAMS-artists have worked with. They represent the various stages of the sessions.
Corn Field
Stage 1
This is a simple composition, which helps SAMS-artists begin to learn how to draw and paint shapes.
Ivy Cottage
Stage 2
This is another quite simple composition, which helps SAMS-artists begin to learn how to draw and paint shapes. The house provides a focal point and an opportunity for an individual to show their own style.
Sea Side
Stage 3
In this painting, the SAMS-artist learns more techniques; wet-in-wet and dry brush work. Within this painting they can also use it to find the confidence to paint their own objects, such as the tree and rocks.
Turner Sunset
Stage 4
The SAMS-artist can find their own colour palette within this painting. The sky can provide a good opportunity to learn what the paint and the colours can achieve.
