Art Courses
Join me for 6 week drawing and painting courses. The only way to improve a skill is to practice, practice, practice! Regular weekly art classes will give you the time to develop skills and learn new techniques by trying different mediums and subjects. It’s a great way to meet people with similar interests and become part of the art community.
Classes are taught in a relaxed and friendly way with one to one advice and help given through out the session.
At the start of each week I will demonstrate the steps and technique to guide you through the weeks chosen theme. As well as continuing with Watercolours we will dive into fluid and flowing inks, gouache and creative mixed media.
All materials are provided along with hot drinks and sweet treats!
