Hello,

Watercolour is a beautiful medium to paint with. The bright translucent pigments are a perfect combination with any drawing media. However, the uncontrollable flow of water on paper and the unforgiving nature of paper itself can make the expereince feel very daunting. Watercolour, combined with pen is a more relxed way of using the medium and also let you explore and develop a unique style. You will be surprised to see beautiful results right from the beginning!

The workshop is divided into two sessions. During the first session, you will learn the basic techniques using watercolour and combine it with pen.  We will also discuss about perspective that is necessary for the project.

The second session will concentrate on creating the scene with a beautiful cedar tree and a park bench. Please find the schedule for this workshop below.
