Courses for AdultsArt, Photography, Natural History, Creative Textiles

This course is suitable for those who have completed the first 10-week beginners course with me and those who have basic skills in watercolour painting. Skills and confidence will be developed in applying watercolours to paint a variety of scenes. This 10 week course consists of a detailed handout, links to demonstrations on YouTube (sent out each Tuesday) and individual feedback via email, thus enabling you to study in the comfort of your own home at a time that suits you.
