Paul Foxton - Invidious

Paul Foxton

Welcome to my channel! I'm a realist painter and teacher, living and working in the heart of the Cotswolds in the UK.

Here you'll find tutorial videos on all manner of topics related to painting, specifically oil painting: Still life set up ideas, flower painting tutorials, colour mixing videos - especially the Munsell colour system - and specific tutorials on how to paint silver, glass etc in oils.

Mostly though, I try to focus on the fundamentals of oil painting - the things that you need no matter what your subject: Composition, drawing, values edge handling and colour - all with oil painting.

I live stream painting from my studio occasionally (for free), usually just hwatever I happen to be working on at the time - most often flower painting in oils.

Although the live sessions are very informal, inevitably I end up teaching a bit as people ask questions. Feel to ask your own as we go along.

Subscribe to see live each stream and new tutorial videos as I upload them!
