Workshops 2027

Graham Webber: “Cityscape” in Oils

Saturday 10th April 2027  |  10:00 – 16:00
Graham is a professional artist born in North East Essex and is an elected member of The Royal Institute of Oil Painters (ROI). He has served on the Council of the ROI as Membership Secretary. His love of landscape oil painting stems from the adaptability and responsiveness of oil paint and the desire to interpret the atmosphere of his subject. East Anglian painters such as Edward Seago, Harry Becker and John Constable are constant sources of inspiration. Most of Graham’s paintings are influenced by changing atmospheres and appreciation of nature and the landscape itself whether at home in East Anglia or further afield.
