Teacher
Petronella teaches The Art of Colour, a Thursday evening class about learning to work, see and feel in colour. Working mostly in acrylic on paper and canvas, she guides students through which colours talk to one another, how to place and layer them, and how to edit a nearly-finished painting so that it lifts. Students leave the term with finished pieces, and a much clearer sense of the colours that make them happy.
