Service Description

Enjoy the beauty and magic of Watercolour by painting florals and foliage with a seasonal twist. 'There is nothing more difficult for a truly creative painter than to paint a rose because before he paints it he must first forget all the roses that were ever painted' - Henri Matisse 10:30 - 1:30 All materials included Are you looking to take some time out during the busy festive season and create with Watercolours? If so give yourself permission to slow down with a Winter Watercolour Foliage and Florals taster session; the perfect opportunity to indulge in the beauty and magic of this glorious medium, whilst creating the most beautiful seasonal blooms and leaves. The class will include a demonstration, an overview of supplies, an exploration of hues/values and types of brushholds. You will try some basic techniques to enhance your brushwork for painting both flowers and foliage; including wet on wet, pulling and drybrushing. Practise painting a Winter floral composition or wreath with skills learned. About Lucy: I’m Lucy, a creative based in Moray and I have a lifelong passion for Art and Design. At school Art (particularly painting) and Textiles were my favourite subjects. After completing an Art Foundation Course I went in to study Textile Design (BA Hons Textile Design, Nottingham Trent University). Recently, I had the opportunity to really focus in on my passion for Watercolour painting. I refreshed my skills via classes online and joined artists' communities. I developed a daily Watercolour practice and found it so satisfying to paint both floral pieces and landscapes/seascapes. My work began to flourish and I began selling my art online and locally. I started sharing my knowledge by leading a couple of workshops in my local area and I love sharing what I’ve learned! PLEASE NOTE: All of our workshops require a minimum number of participants for them to run. Workshops may need to be canceled or postponed if numbers are not met.
