All materials are provided and a mount is included for you to complete your masterpiece and take home.
Christmas discs
Paint a festive disc with vibrant glass paint colours. With several designs to choose from, this fun workshop allows you to create something truly unique to hang as a tree decoration or from your window to give it a little Christmas sparkle! They make unique Christmas presents too!
Autumn Trees
Lots of dappling with foliage brushes and layering of autumnal colours in this workshop. A great stress relieving way to spend a few hours. For those who already dabble in watercolours, this enjoyable and effective technique can be used again and again in your own paintings.
DRY-STONE WALLS
Learn a great technique for creating realistic dry-stone walls, using a plastic card. It’s fun and easy to do!
This workshop is perfect for those that already dabble in watercolour and wish to learn some different techniques.
SUNSET
There’s lots of colour in this watercolour workshop! We have some amazing sunsets in the Scordale Valley and capturing the dramatic colours is great fun. We use intense watercolours straight from the tube in this workshop. This is a great workshop to do if you wish to increase your sky painting skills.
Credit Card Hills
Forget brushes! Move and sculpt watercolour on paper using a credit card in this workshop. Its a fantastic way of creating new textures and marks and is great fun to do! We use deep, earthy, winter colours to create the wintery image of Murton Pike (which is handily right outside the studio windows!).
Poppies
Learn to paint vibrant watercolour poppies in this informal, fun and relaxed workshop. A great workshop for complete beginners – enjoy experimenting with some fantastic, intense colours and learn new techniques to create your own poppy painting in a simple, enjoyable way.
