About this course

This course is designed to lead on from the Watercolour for Beginner’s Course. Through attending this course, you will build upon the foundational skills learnt on the first course to extend knowledge and techniques.

In this course, you will build upon your existing knowledge of essential materials such as brushes, paints, and paper, gaining a deeper understanding of how each element interacts to produce various effects. You will enhance your skills in various watercolour techniques and compositional elements. By the end of the course, you will have refined your skills and techniques and gained greater confidence in painting.

This course is suitable for beginners who have attended the Watercolour for Beginners course and have some basic knowledge of watercolour painting. It is designed to help improvers refresh and further develop their skills. Each session will include demonstrations, hands-on practice, and constructive feedback to support your progression.
