Modern Watercolour Workshop with Lyndsey Knight
Description
Come along for an evening of painting with watercolour paints.
We'll dive straight into the art class with hands-on techniques and methods of contemporary watercolour. With a still life set-up, you'll create your own colourful masterpiece to take home.
We'll touch on the fundamental properties of watercolour paint and traditional methods of layering, but the focus will be on how to create modern images with intense, strong colour — no muddy washes here! After the art class, you'll be so inspired to go home and keep painting!
Come on your own, or bring a mate — all people and all abilities are welcome.
Included are all your materials. Due to covid-19 restrictions, there will be no snacks or drinks provided (feel free to bring your own) and please wear a mask.
Please note: Your paintings will be wet at the end of the class and you'll be unable to take them home immediately — you'll be able to organise a pick-up time another day with your instructor.
