Impressionist Seascape Painting – 2-Day Impressionist Workshop with Rod Moore

Join acclaimed artist Rod Moore for a two-day workshop at Moore Art Gallery in Cooroy (Near Noosa). This two day workshop will get you started in the right direction with painting seascapes in the Australian Impressionist style.

Over two days, you’ll begin to paint the Australian seascape, capturing rugged headlands and crashing waves in the expressive Impressionist style. Rod will demonstrate his approach step-by-step, helping you simplify complex scenes, mix clean, vibrant colour, and bring your paintings to life with confident brushwork and palette knife textures.

Whether you’re a beginner eager to learn or an intermediate painter seeking to deepen your Impressionist seascape approach, you’ll come away with fresh inspiration, practical techniques, and a renewed sense of creative confidence.

Spaces are strictly limited to ensure individual attention and a relaxed, supportive atmosphere. Don’t miss this opportunity to paint with Rod at his Moore Art Gallery.

Here is just some of what we will cover:

* Understanding the 5 Step Painting Process & The Moore Method of Painting

* Mapping big shapes using values and temperature
