A ‘Waiting Room’ system will be in operation, Ali will let you in approximately ten minutes before the session is due to start. Please note that should your internet connection fail or you have to leave the session, you will need to wait for a convenient pause in her demonstration before you can be admitted again.
If you need to leave and then return, we suggest that you mute your audio, turn off your camera, but remain logged in to the session so that you can pick up the tuition when you need to come back.
If you are a Prussian Blue, Cobalt Turquoise or Antique Gold member you are welcome to attend your live tutorial in person at the studio. Please read the specific section of the Ts and Cs before booking.
Reference and preparation
As an Antique Gold member, you may wish to work on a specific part of your artistic practice and therefore, Ali would like to have a conversation with you ahead of this tutorial. You may want to work on a specific medium or perhaps a technique that has been eluding you and so she offers you the opportunity to tailor the session to your needs. There may be more than one of you present on the day and so you can work together to improve your skills. It is very important that you contact Ali ahead of this tutorial to chat about what you want her to cover and then she can let you know what you need to bring. Please email, WhatsApp or ring her to discuss it further.
Please download and print the following image/s in plenty of time for your session:
This image(s) are just a suggestion, you are welcome to use them on the day or provide your own. Please make sure any images you use while attending this tutorial are free from copyright.
Printing Advice:
We recommend that you print these images out in approximately A4 size as that is an achievable size of painting on the day. You are of course welcome to increase or decrease the image as you feel is appropriate to your skill level.
Every smartphone, tablet, laptop and desktop has a different way of managing how it downloads images and where it puts them on your system. This is also the same for brands and models of printers so it is essential to the success of acquiring these images, that you refer to the manuals or help forums for your particular devices. We will try to be as helpful as we can with advice but as we cannot see what you are seeing on your screen, it makes it nearly impossible to assist you effectively.
If you would like us to print and post these images to you, we are very happy to do that, all we ask is that you send an A4, self-addressed and correctly stamped board backed envelope to ‘Workshop Image Request’ c/o Downend Farm Studio, 3 Downend Farm, Bushes Road, Stourpaine, Dorset, DT11 8SY with a note as to which workshop you are requesting the images for. Please be aware that we need at least two weeks ahead of your session to complete this task, and if the self-addressed envelope does not have the correct amount of postage fixed to it, it may not reach you.
