About this Event

Introduction to Line and Wash Painting

Join International Artist Linda Hollingshead, well known for her friendly, inspirational and enjoyable courses and workshops to be introduced to Line and Wash.

This enjoyable relaxed style of painting combines drawing and sketching with pens, with the addition of colour using inks and watercolour washes. Discover how by using waterproof pens and watercolour wash, you can soon capture the likeness of a subject and create expressive and loose sketches and paintings.

Linda guides you through a variety of techniques, tools and the materials to use. Interactive easy exercises will give you a step-by-step introduction to how best to use a pen as a drawing tool and how liquid inks and watercolour can be used to create different effects. Using photographs, we will cover a range of subjects to give you the chance to practice the techniques.

The afternoon’s focus is on gaining confidence with these techniques and best practice. Using simple subjects and photos to follow steps to create results to be proud of.

Participants will be shown demonstrations and have guided one to one help and advice with opportunities for Q&A’s to achieve best results. There will be plenty of time to practice Line and Wash at your own pace.

The round up session suggests ideas and ways going forward to continue your creative practice.
