The Course
The 2 day course is suitable for complete beginners or those who would like to brush up on basic techniques. We learn in watercolour as it is a good teaching medium.
As with all our courses, the subject is a vehicle for learning different artistic skills that build our technical tool kit. On day 1 Mike will demonstrate each topic for you to then try yourself. On Day 2, you will consolidate all that you have learned by painting your own picture from start to finish, revisiting and reinforcing what you have learned and working on any aspects that you find difficult.
- Stretching watercolour paper
- Picture construction
- Painting skies and clouds
- How to create a sense of depth and distance using tone and colour
- Painting foliage and reflections in water
Suitable for complete beginners and those who have painted before and wish to rekindle their desire to paint again and brush up on the basic techniques. No drawing skills required.
Coffee, cake and a delicious home cooked, healthy lunch with wine are included.
Arrive from 9.30am, for coffee before a 10am start. The day finishes at 4.30pm.
