ART: WATERCOLOUR for Absolute Beginners

Art, Watercolour

Tutor/Facilitator: Kimbra Taylor
1 Saturday - 23 August from 9:30am - 3:30pm

After amazing feedback from students last term, we are repeating this one day course! Do you think it's hard to paint with watercolour? It sure can be if you don't know how. I can teach you how! In one day we cover some fundamental techniques that enable you to paint subtle lights, solid mid tones and luscious darks without any brush marks, patchiness or those pesky cauliflowers. You can do it when you understand the beautiful nature of watercolour which is to flow...you will also experience a bit of right hemispheric creative play!

Fees: NZ$90 - see equipment list and BYO lunch
