Paint with Chris Forsey in any water based media in Exmoor and the stunning North Devon Coast, where you will paint cascading rivers, moorland valleys, harbours and coastal scenes. There are many stunning locations including the River Barle and valley, the harbour town of Lynmouth which was called 'Little Switzerland' by the Victorians and the villages of Winsford, Withypool and Malmsmead.

Chris is a very experienced painter and enthusiastic teacher, mostly specialising in landscape subjects. He has a distinctive style in his work, with atmosphere, light and colour of great importance. He uses demonstration and one-to-one teaching approaches to help the student understand how to explore a free and expressive approach in their own work using combinations of water-based media.

Accommodation:

Simonsbath House is set in the heart of Exmoor with splendid views of the Barle Valley thus providing some painting spots from or near the hotel. Also, it’s unique location enables access to not only the Exmoor locations but some North Devon Coast locations such as Lynmouth.

It is a 350 year old house which retains many of the wonderful traditional features yet has been maintained to a high standard and provides a comfortable place to stay. 

All rooms are en-suite and have stunning views of the valley. There are 14 bedrooms including 4 self contained cottages, which can be occupied individually for an extra £10 per night or by 2 or more friends/partners for the normal double occupancy rate.
