Colouring in with watercolours Workshop

2 Hours Hands on workshop No experience necessary.

Registration : Please contact me if you would like to register for this workshop.

A great introduction to painting with watercolors. Create a piece of artwork using watercolour paints with one my own ‘Woodland Frieze’ colouring in designs printed for you on heavy watercolour paper. I have 2 original line drawing designs featuring woodland imagery for you to choose from. Please contact me if you are interested in taking this class in Bayside, Melbourne.

Colouring in with watercolour paints is an ideal way to become familiar with brush control and paint handling, without having to worry about the drawing side of things. You will learn about the transparent nature of watercolour paints as we go along. The line drawings I have created have a variety of colouring in spaces where different techniques can be practised.

I provide a handout sheet to remind you of the simple techniques we will have covered. No materials necessary, everything you need to create an artwork  will be provided at the workshop. Wear something comfortable that you don’t mind getting messy! This course is best suited to adults.
