5 week course | Thursday 23rd July - Thursday 13th August
Each week is inspired by a seasonal wildflower, which you will get to know through drawing, watercolour painting, poetry and folklore. Holly will introduce you to new techniques and styles, allowing your creative confidence to grow week-by-week.
You will learn a range of step-by-step watercolour painting techniques, mindful activities throughout the creative process, and create a portfolio of spring paintings to take home.
What you will gain:
- Practical watercolour techniques for painting wildflowers
- Increased creative confidence and a mindful approach to art-making
- Experience exploring nature through a creative lens
- A calm, supportive space to enjoy the creative process over outcomes
No previous experience is necessary, just bring yourself and an open mind! The activities offered will be accessible for all levels and abilities.
