Painting
Throughout this 12-week course you will learn how to paint what you see in its simplest form, recognise a good subject and translate it into a compelling watercolour.
You will develop simple watercolour techniques in a way that is both practical and inspirational.
All aspects of watercolour painting will be covered during the lessons, from the initial idea and sketch to the finished work.
