Dermot’s Watercolour, Oil and Acrylic courses are a superb learn to paint experience and are held in a relaxed and tranquil learning environment. Dermot’s courses are suitable for all levels of artistic ability including absolute beginners and all art materials are provided for use during the painting sessions.

Previous guests have said, they learnt more from Dermot’s courses in a few days than from years attending other classes. 

Colleen McGurgan from Tyrone said, The painting course was very informative and thoroughly enjoyable. It  was very well organised and the pace of learning was really appropriate. I really liked the practical artwork broken up into technical tutorials and painting hacks. Dermot, your story telling really complimented the activities.

Sue Cole
said, In a word ‘BRILLIANT’. Learnt so much about the techniques of watercolour. Feel I now have the specialist knowledge to begin exploring working in watercolour.

Reviews & feedback from Dermot's Guests

Read what others have to say about Dermots in-person and online painting courses.

Incredibly valuable for giving a beginner great instruction and confidence. Learnt so many techniques and valuable info about mixing and composition. Fully intend to do a follow-on course. I would recommend the course to anyone.

My very first art lesson and I thoroughly enjoyed it and learnt such a lot. All I need now is practise, practice, practice And probably another course in a month or so. Well done Dermot and Thank you for your patience.

Sue Watson

The 3 day course on watercolours was very informative and thoroughly enjoyable. The course was very well organised and the pace of learning was really appropriate. I really liked the practical art work broken up into technical tutorials and painting hacks. Dermot, your story telling really complimented the activities.

Colleen McGurgan

Very impressed with the amount of knowledge imparted by Dermot over the 3 days. Very enjoyable and relaxed way of teaching. Dermot’s many stories broke up the more intense periods of learning.
