This workshop is designed for beginners as well as those with some experience of watercolours who want to ‘loosen up’ a little! It is designed to explore how watercolour paints behave and how we control the paint through the choice of tools, techniques and mark making.
We will work through a series of enjoyable exercises which will help you;
- Control the flow of the paints using different dilutions
- Understand the different marks and surfaces you can create using a range of brushes and other tools
- Model the paint to create form and texture
- Use a range of methods to mix colour.
Above all you will have the opportunity to experiment with watercolours without the pressure of ‘making a picture’. This will help overcome the anxiety many people have when first exploring this medium.
Paper and basic paints will be supplied. You will need to bring brushes, jars and cleaning materials. Full details will be forward when you register.
