Watercolour: beginner techniques
About the event
Discover the peaceful magic of watercolour in this fun Sunday workshop designed for beginners. Start with the basics and learn to lay smooth washes, create soft blooms for floral and atmospheric effects and use dry brushing techniques to add detail and texture. You’ll explore unconventional methods, such as using salt to pull pigment into snowflake like bursts and cling wrap to form jagged, crystalline textures. These techniques are perfect for creating ethereal backgrounds and intricate organic patterns. This class is more than a class-it’s a creative reset.
