Saturday 2nd November 2024 | 10:30 to 13:00 | Surrey Art School, RH55DL

Join me at my studio for a gloriously Autumnal workshop working with artist-quality watercolours and other magical materials to create pretty watercolour studies of plump pumpkins and gourds of all shapes and colours!

We’ll begin by learning how to sketch their delightfully odd and uneven shapes in pencil using beginner friendly techniques.

We’ll then create a page or two of experiments, laying down gradually darker and richer layers of watercolour paint - picking from a vibrant natural palette of colours!

There will be a playful and experimental energy in first half of the workshop as we play with different brush types and colour combinations. We’ll include a sprinkle of magic as we experiment with brusho - a crystal colour powder that produces some wildly vibrant results!

We’ll pause halfway for a nice cuppa and a slice of cake before choosing one or two of of studies to refine in the second half - using a paper with a bit more texture / tooth for your final paintings.

You can expect a fun workshop, working with fabulous materials & filled with beginner-friendly tips and tricks in this sublimely seasonal class.

All materials and light refreshments are included!
