Greg Allen demo – completed watercolour painting

Join Greg for a fascinating journey into watercolour that will open the eyes of any student new to the medium, while confirming and enhancing the knowledge of those that have some experience.

You will tackle a range of familiar scenes such as land and sea as well as a wildlife subject, that when completed, will cross-pollinate people’s skills with plenty of ‘penny -dropping‘ moments!!

Proper technique, colour mixing, planning, wash order plus design and composition are just some of the aspects that will be tackled, so you begin to see the world through the eyes of a ‘watercolourist’ and not merely your former self.

Students will be expected to bring their own gear. Greg will provide reference material.

There will be a second similar 2day workshop planned for November due to high demand.

Don’t miss out on this wonderful opportunity to learn from a master watercolour painter.
