Join Melbourne-based artist Rehann for a dynamic five-week watercolour course designed to infuse your paintings with bold colour and spontaneous expression. This paint-along style class encourages fearless creativity, helping you develop intuitive painting skills and achieve finished artworks by the end of each session. Rehann’s expert guidance will ignite your passion for the watercolour medium while exploring both technical and emotional depth.

Rehann will help you to bring excitement to your watercolours though the bold use of colour and an embrace of spontaneity which translates directly to the finished work.

What to expect:

Each session will be a paint-along format, where Rehann will demonstrate and everyone paints together. Each session, will result in a finished work.

• WEEK 1 – will focus on developing trust in your materials, cultivating intuitive decision-making, and leaning into the expressive potential of the medium without fear.
• WEEKS 2 & 3 – will be about understanding and experiencing what “bold” really means in watercolour, letting go of perfectionism and outcome-based painting and painting fast, big and fearlessly.
