Watercolour - Paint along with Sue
This one-day workshop is suitable for learners of all abilities who have an interest in watercolour painting. We will concentrate on developing purely watercolour applications from an initial pencil drawing. We will then explore basic and more technical approaches, such as: wet into wet, soft edges, wet on dry, dry brush, etc. We will also look at colour mixing and tonal values, which are important for approaches to painting in general. Step-by-step guidance will be given throughout.

Reference pictures and drawings are sent prior to the session via email, and learners will be asked to draw the picture out, lightly in pencil first, ready for the session.
