PETER RIPPON CLASSES

Gallery 415 presents oil painting classes with Peter Rippon. These classes aim to eliminate much of the guesswork and uncertainty that can make oil painting seem difficult, and to open painting up as a highly enjoyable and rewarding activity.

As a means of self-expression, oil paint can be a very powerful medium as its complexities allow for endless possibilities. Peter Rippon is a professional artist known for his highly developed technical ability. He has a Master’s degree in Fine Art, has had four solo exhibitions and has participated in numerous groups exhibitions around the country and overseas. His primary area of expertise is oil painting. In his work, he touches on a variety of themes, including the body, mortality, death, loss, nostalgia, and containment.

The classes take place on alternate Saturdays from 09h00 to 12h00 at Gallery 415 (above Spectrum Art & Office on Umgeni Road) and cost R150 per lesson. An afternoon session may be started later, with a discount for students attending both sessions. The classes can accommodate both beginners and more advanced painters,
