We are incredibly excited to announce that @mhpaints (Michael Harding) will be sponsoring the BTA Art Prize, offering our winning young artist much more than just a selection of high-quality art materials. As part of this fantastic opportunity, the winner will also have the chance to become involved in the prestigious Future Masters Programme, run by Michael Harding, which is dedicated to supporting and nurturing the next generation of artistic talent. From providing professional-quality paints and materials to offering valuable opportunities for creative development, exposure and recognition, this sponsorship could be a fantastic stepping stone for an aspiring artist. We are so grateful to Michael Harding for supporting young creatives and helping us give emerging artists the opportunity to develop their skills, grow in confidence and take the next step in their artistic journey. We want to make sure the BTA Art Prize is accessible to as many young creatives as possible. That’s why all young artists can enter for just £6 – half the price of a standard entry. This discounted entry fee gives you access to every prize category, including the incredible main prize worth £1,200. Here’s what last years winner, @alfredgriffithsart had to say about his experience winning Young Artist of The Year 2026: “Winning the BTA Young Artist of the Year 2026 was great. I still can’t believe that my work was judged and chosen by artists whose work I’ve admired for years. I couldn’t believe Michael Harding was on the panel, I’ve been using his paints since I was really young, so having someone like that see value in what I’m doing meant a lot. It definitely boosted my confidence. At the time I won, I was finishing my A‑levels and already knew painting was what I wanted to do. I actually got the phone call during one of my art classes, and the reassurance it gave me was huge.” See last photo for the winning piece ‘Self Portrait at the Easel’.

Working with a carefully selected palette of beautiful oil colours from @mhpaints , we examined the relationships between hue, value and chroma, and how an understanding of these properties can help us make more informed decisions at the easel. An important part of our approach involves pre-mixing colour strings: carefully observed progressions of colour and value, prepared on the palette before painting begins. This allows students to establish a more considered range of mixtures, understand the relationships between them, and approach their paintings with greater confidence and intention. Of course, the real magic happens when these principles are put into practice! It was wonderful to watch each student develop their understanding throughout the week, translating their observations into beautifully considered paintings of pears and figs. A heartfelt thank you to our lovely students for another inspiring week of painting, learning and conversation. 🤍 Join us at the Atelier in 2027 for another week of Still Life Painting in Oils! Our workshops are limited to just eight students, allowing for plenty of individual instruction in a welcoming, dedicated studio environment.

Wszystkie materiały, po które sięgam w pracowni, są najwyższej klasy. Tu nie ma półśrodków ani zamienników. To dla mnie bardzo ważne.. (taka mała obsesja) 🫣 Często pytacie mnie o podkłady od @mhpaints - to niechłonne podkłady akrylowe, które tworzą trwałą, mocną bazę pod kolejne warstwy farby.  Ja najczęściej nakładam je w formie nierozcieńczonej. W swojej kolekcji mam trzy odcienie: Raw Sienna Dark, Pozzuoli Red Earth oraz Titanium Buff. Siłę ich krycia oraz to, jak prześwituje spod nich szkic, możecie zobaczyć na załączonych kadrach i filmikach. A jeśli żaden z tych kolorów nie odpowiada wizji danego obrazu, sięgam po zwykłe farby akrylowe, które po prostu odpowiednio rozcieńczam. Jeśli macie jeszcze jakieś pytania o podkłady lub podłoża - śmiało zadawajcie je w komentarzach! 🇬🇧 All the materials I reach for in my studio are of the highest professional grade. There are no shortcuts or substitutes here. You often ask me about primers from @mhpaints - I usually apply them undiluted. In my collection, I have three shades: Raw Sienna Dark, Pozzuoli Red Earth, and Titanium Buff. You can see their opacity and how the initial sketch shows through beneath them in the attached photos and videos.  And if none of these colors fit the vision for a particular painting, I reach for standard acrylic paints, which I dilute. #artistlife #artistvlog #artmaterials #contemporaryartist #artist 13 Oct 2026 It took an hour’s hike up into the Quiraing, carrying 25 pounds of gear — and an hour back down again afterwards. In between, this was probably one of the most physically challenging plein air paintings I’ve made. The rain came and went, the wind was relentless, and at times the gusts were so strong that both my easel and camera tripod were threatening to disappear over the edge — even with everything tethered down with tent pegs. There were a few genuinely precarious moments, and I’m incredibly grateful to the kind strangers who stopped to help me keep hold of everything when the wind really picked up. But I kept on painting. And then, between the showers, the light broke through and transformed the landscape in front of me into something spectacular. And it all became worth the strife. Though I was very glad of a warm pub and a large pint at the other end of the hike back! This painting is available. Please send me a DM if you’re interested. #pleinairpainting #isleofskye #scottishpainting #landscapepainting #oilpainting 02 Oct 2026 I’ve put together a two-part video about my Essential Palette — six Michael Harding oil colours I use in my painting practice: • Titanium White • Yellow Ochre • Alizarin Crimson • Transparent Oxide Red • Raw Umber • Ultramarine Blue I share how I organise my palette, prepare colour mixtures, and use them in a flower painting demo. I hope you’ll find it helpful! You can watch both parts on Patreon. Link in my bio.

Tym razem sięgnęłam po materiały z mojego najnowszego zamówienia – primer @mhpaints w mocniejszym kolorze ♥️ Można ruszać – tym razem oleje 🥰 i coś specjalnie dla mnie.. 🇬🇧 Finished painting aside, time for a new one... Where do I start? First the sketch, then the underpainting.
