Our learners have been hard at work over the past few weeks in the Painting department!

They have been developing their skills in geometric painting, learning how to accurately measure, mark out and create eye catching designs using masking tape and professional painting techniques.

Throughout the project, learners have gained hands on experience in surface preparation, taping, cutting in, applying paint evenly, and achieving clean, sharp lines. It’s been fantastic to see their confidence, creativity and attention to detail grow with each session.

Well done to everyone involved the results speak for themselves! 👏🎨

Learners practised applying paint evenly, improving their technique, and gaining confidence in using the equipment safely and effectively.

Well done to everyone involved for their effort and commitment to learning new skills! 👏
