Art and Crafts

Monday

There is an introduction to Watercolour Painting, followed by a demonstration of a simple landscape painted in a limited number of colours. Close one to one supervision is given to each individual so that the student feels confident with their efforts. All the materials that you will use are provided, so there is nothing to worry about!

Tuesday

This afternoon will be spent painting trees, each and every one demonstrated by Susanna, so that they become understandable and fun.

Wednesday

This is a chance to experiment with painting weather. Clouds, blue skies, and sunsets are on the menu with reference to Turner, Constable and Edward Seago.

Thursday

A great afternoon ahead as we use textures in the watercolour process. We will paint the sea, and reflections over the course of the afternoon.

Friday

You will be able to paint a beautiful watercolour by now and with one to one assistance will paint something you have always wished you could do but thought you couldn't.

The point of this course is to remove all the fear of painting through a sequence of workshops which develop your understanding of mixing colour, sorting out the compositions, and understanding your materials. With these carefully explained you will feel secure in your own picture making and more importantly you will have had fun!
