WATERCOLOUR – SATURDAY WORKSHOP

This 1-day workshop offers a hands-on and relaxed approach for individuals to explore the fundamentals of watercolour and experiment with painting techniques.

Watercolour is a beautiful medium that can be used in a variety of ways that some find intimidating. During this course you will start with the fundamentals; from how to hold the brush, load the colour, learn about washes, colour mixing and tones, as well as exploring a variety of techniques. This is a relaxed and intuitive approach to learning, with the emphasis on ‘art is for all’ and individuality.

You will also explore artists who have used watercolour throughout history and how varied the approaches can be to fuel your imagination and provide inspiration for your own work.

Your tutor, Sarah L. Goy, is a trained illustrator, practicing and exhibiting artist, who is also involved in community art project. Through her creative practice and extensive travel experience, she champions the idea of ‘art for all’ and aims to encourage students to explore their own creative ideas in a supportive and relaxed course environment.
