Oil Painting Classes with Artist Vincent Keeling - South Dublin and Wicklow

Floral Painting - classes

Hi Everyone, 

This is just a quick update as of October 2023 to let people know that I've taken a step back from the teaching for now. Always hard trying to balance the teaching side of things and my own studies and art creation. I'm not saying I won't be back, and I'm actually doing a lot of reading and writing at the moment, so no doubt this will come to something in time. For now, if you fancy it you could always subscribe to my class newsletter below, or indeed subscribe to my regular Art Newsletter about what I'm up to in the studio. 

Sorry for any inconvenience, but there are no shortage of good teachers out there so I'm sure you'll be grand. 

Many thanks! Vincent Keeling - vincentkeeling@gmail.com

ONLINE CLASSES

Currently working on lesson plans for the online classes, and figuring out the technology. In the meantime, I'd love to hear from you if your keen for me to get going with these, or are looking for a particular type of class. Info from you guys will help guide which way I steer the classes. Thanks! Vincent - vincentkeeling@gmail.com

 

DUBLIN OIL PAINTING CLASSES

In the process of putting together a few classes for Block-T who have now moved into a great new space at The Digital Hub in Dublin city. (The Liberties, Dublin 8) Watch this space!

WICKLOW OIL PAINTING CLASSES

New in-person classes for 2023 starting back on 18th January starting at The Schoolhouse for Art, Enniskerry, Co Wicklow. Click above for more info! The first one is a general oil painting class, or where students work on their own projects, much like I ran years before. This is listed as OIL PAINTING ART GROUP - VINCENT KEELING on the Schoolhouse’s website. And then there’s a new class in DRAWING TECHNIQUES class, which is open to beginners as well as more experienced students looking to round out their knowledge of drawing approaches and schools of thought. 

All the details are up in the website of The Schoolhouse for Art, who as in years past, are kindly hosting my Wicklow art classes.
