This fun course for beginners explores watercolour painting with pen, ink, pencil and pastels to create non-traditional compositions.

Under the guidance of our experienced tutor, you’ll be introduced to the concept of colour theory and learn about the work of a wide variety of artists to help broaden your knowledge.

You’ll get hands on with watercolour painting techniques from transparent and opaque washes to layering and staccato dry brushing. Also explore the fundamental image making concepts of line, measurement, perspective and composition and get an introduction to the importance of tonal value (shadow and light) to create the illusion of three dimensional form.

This is a great 6-week course for beginners looking to explore the world of traditional and contemporary watercolour techniques.

Full instruction is provided on materials, products, tools, equipment and studio procedures.
