Course programme

Take a variety of paints, some paper, a couple of brushes... then add water!

Next, stir in some basic drawing skills, working to a recipe, keeping things simple at first – with everything you need to hand. Now add some good habits. Finally throw in a dash of panache and there you are! Watercolour magic!

We will be thinking of painting as a language; its brushstrokes as the words, and every brush has a ‘vocabulary’ of different marks that you can make with it. How you put them together and the colours you choose will become your style - your dialect if you want to pursue the literary analogy!
