Successful watercolour painting is all about control of the pigment, the amount of water in your brush and the moisture on the paper. Only practice can deliver good control of these elements. To make this practice fun we will use vibrant colours and make beautiful edges and washes to build form. This is a two day workshop to practice the core techniques of watercolour and to use these skills in a series of paintings. We will paint
flowers, trees, people and landscapes.
This course is suitable for students looking to further develop their watercolour skills. Please bring your own watercolour paints, palette, brushes and 300gsm watercolour paper.
