Looking at watercolour techniques and the development of abilities
All are welcome on this course. During this course we will look at watercolour techniques and development of abilities around specific areas, some Still Life, some drawing from past Masters and some Landscape.
The use of photographs to draw and work out composition, then translating these images into paintings.
There will be scope for you to use some of your own photographs under the guidance of the tutor.
Above all this will be stretching your abilities but fun.
I am a tutor of many years standing, having taught Adults for the County, an Artist in Printmaking and Painting, with a teaching qualification and a Degree in Fine Arts. I have exhibited locally and nationally.
My inspiration is the landscapes of Yorkshire, The Lake District, Scotland, wildlife, and my Dog, I spent time outdoors painting and sketching some times in remote landscapes.
