Watercolours Workshop - Landscape and Ink June 7th 2025

The theme of a landscape can be enhanced using a variety of water soluble art materials. Materials included will be watercolour discs, pigments, inks, pencils and pens. This workshop will give you a sense of magic and wonder with how versatile watercolour can be when you explore techniques such as wet on wet, wet on dry, washes, layering and dry brush to create a landscape.

The gorgeous effects achieved with the right brushes and ability to make water flow using a variety of techniques, will give you a sense of confidence and calm to then blend tones and gradients of colour to give your landscape a feeling of depth. Watercolour papers and cards will also be supplied to broaden your understanding of the best surfaces on which to use your watercolour materials and give you a number of options to choose from for projects. You will complete 3 small rectangular landscapes to take home. Samples and experiments of techniques and skills learnt will be created to document your journey into watercolours. Materials are included in this workshop.

6-8 participants

Painting workshops and classes will demonstrate techniques that will include glazing, embedding, texturing and sgrafitto. Be prepared to deconstruct the mystery behind many contemporary effects used by artists today. Using some experiments and contemporary design inspired ideas you will feel confident tackling a canvas or media board on which to take your painting mediums much further.
