Beginner-Friendly Acrylic Painting Workshop at Hughenden Estate

Looking for a creative and inspiring thing to do in High Wycombe? Join Toni from Easely Does It for a beautiful acrylic painting workshop in Buckinghamshire, set within the stunning surroundings of the National Trust’s Hughenden Estate.

In this guided painting class, you’ll create “Emerald” — an elegant portrait of a serene young woman adorned with a stunning flower crown. Rich in colour, expressive brushwork, and floral beauty, this contemporary artwork is designed to be both achievable and rewarding, even for complete beginners.

To help build confidence, each canvas comes with a light pre-drawn outline of the face and key features. This is not paint-by-numbers — instead, the template simply removes the worry of drawing proportions, allowing you to focus on painting, colour, creativity, and developing your artistic skills.

Whether you’re completely new to painting or looking to explore portraiture in a supportive environment, this step-by-step workshop will help you create a canvas you’ll be proud to display.

What You’ll Learn

Working on a 40cm x 30cm stretched canvas, you’ll discover how to:

✨ Paint beautiful skin tones using simple acrylic techniques

✨ Create expressive floral crowns full of colour and movement

✨ Blend colours to create depth, light, and atmosphere

✨ Add highlights and shadows to bring your portrait to life

✨ Develop confidence with acrylic paints and portrait painting techniques

This beginner acrylic painting workshop combines practical techniques with creative freedom, allowing you to personalise your colours, flowers, and artistic style.

A Relaxing Painting Experience for Beginners

No previous painting experience is required.

This welcoming and supportive art class is designed for complete beginners, hobby artists, and anyone wanting to try portrait painting without the pressure of starting from a blank canvas.

Toni will guide you through every stage of the painting process with demonstrations, individual support, and plenty of encouragement.
