Watercolour painting provides you with the perfect opportunity to relax and lose yourself, at a time of uncertainty in our lives. These sessions aim to be stress free, providing step by step tuition. However, there will also be opportunities to explore more independently, as well as introducing some mixed media to your work. This course is for those starting their watercolour journey but will also apply to those wanting to improve their work.
