Course Description

Learn how to simplify your paintings using a limited palette, texture effects and big brushes. Bring light and freshness in your paintings by capturing mood and atmosphere. Emphasis will be on developing your own style and experimenting with a variety of watercolour effects and techniques. About the tutor: Sue is a Watercolour expert. The Australian Landscape has always been a source of inspiration for my paintings. Having experimented with other mediums I have specialised in watercolour painting and feel challenged by its beautiful effects and possibilities. As well as exhibiting my work I enjoy teaching and sharing my knowledge of the medium. What you need to bring Materials & Equipment List: PAINTS – Artists quality tubes BEGINNER’S TUBES 1.
