About

Something most people don't realise: the reason watercolour feels frustrating at first isn't about talent - it's about not knowing how the medium works yet.

Beginner Watercolour Techniques - is all about changing that.


Learn how watercolour truly behaves and how to use that to your advantage. This hands-on session covers essential techniques and brush skills, plus a dive into paint consistency so you can control your paint with confidence. You'll get a chance to practice the techniques in class and ask questions as we go.


We'll cover the following:

  • Watercolour paper types
  • Brush types
  • Dilution - water to paint consistency ratios.
  • Wet-on-wet and wet-on-dry
  • Drying brushing,
  • Layering,
  • Lifting,
  • Colour washes - solid and gradient
  • Fades/Blending


All levels welcome and materials included.
