David Curtis ROI RSMA: Watercolours
and Oils: 6th - 8th September 2013
We are delighted that David Curtis has very kindly agreed to tutor again at
Staithes Art School. Here in Staithes he is a familiar figure indeed, heading
off with his easel and paint box in all weathers, at any hour between dawn
and dusk, to find yet another viewpoint from which to paint.
He is one of the most successful and best known artists in the UK, having
won countless awards for his spectacular art. His paintings are held in a
number of prestigious public and private collections worldwide. Recently he
has completed a rarecommission, having been selected as the artist of his
generation to capture in paint the Changing of the Military Colours Ceremony
with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Always keen to nurture new talent, David is also the author of several books
and presenter of a number of films, all illustrated with his own stunning
artwork, offering help, advice and inspiration to fellow artists. This painting
weekend will be a rare opportunity for aspiring artists to learn from him
in person in one of his best-loved painting locations.
