About Watercolour: Learning the Basics

Listed Under Arts and Crafts Events / Learning Events / Workshops Events

Watercolour can be a tricky medium to understand, especially when just starting out. This class is ideal for learning the skills you need to start your journey, or as a refresher if you’ve not painted for a while. We’ll also discuss the basic materials needed.

PLEASE NOTE - you‘ll need at least some basic drawing skills, so you can follow along with the references - ask me if you’re unsure about your ability.

Learn about: using brushes effectively • mixing paint • applying washes • wet in wet • dry brush • controlling edges - and lots more!

All materials supplied. Refreshments included.
