Loose Florals Watercolour Workshop at Breezy Knees, Sat 4th October, 10-1pm

Overview:

This watercolour workshop is suitable for you whether you have some experience of watercolour and would like to explore new techniques, or a total beginner. Minimal drawing required! The emphasis of the workshop is very much on play and experimentation. After a time to have a play with colour and techniques, you’ll be guided step by step to create your atmospheric painting. You'll explore some fantastic and fun techniques (cling film, salt and spatter) to create wonderful textures, as well as practising more traditional washes and wet on wet painting.

What to bring: All materials are provided and included in the price so you just need to bring yourself; an apron and something to take your lovely paintings home with you would also be useful. If you would like to bring along some sketches or photos of your own to base your painting on then that's of course fine.

Your tutor: Ione is a landscape artist and tutor with over 30 years' teaching experience. Her aim in her teaching is twofold: for you to feel supported to develop confidence and skill in using the wonderful medium of watercolour; for you to have fun and spend an enjoyable, restorative time playing with colour.

This workshop will take place in the Breezy Teas cafe building (wheelchair accessible), where your group will have exclusive use of the space under Ione's instruction. All materials, as well as tea and coffee provided. All you need is some enthusiasm!

nB. The gardens will be closed at this time (as they open annually on the 1st May).
