Lessons can continue for as long as desired. This may be weeks or years.

For a beginner, this may be until he / she has the confidence to continue painting alone.

For the more experienced, it may simply be until the relevant gaps have been filled.

Really it depends on a students starting level, the level to which one aspires and the subjects painted.

Sometimes a student may have lessons and then go away and paint for a while and return for further lessons as new questions arise or to learn additional techniques. Or they may simply want to discuss the paintings they have made and get some feedback and a little advice on how to develop their work.

The number of hours required in total varies from person to person.
