Seasonal Flowers and Herbs
WATERCOLOUR WORKSHOP
Join us at the wonderful Hugo Burge Foundation for a wellbeing and therapeutic workshop devoted to the art of floral watercolour painting.
We will based in the calming and tranquil glasshouse, using the flowers and herbs from the historic walled gardens as delightful inspiration. There will be chance to relax and explore the gardens as well.
You will learn how to illustrate seasonal flowers and foliage from the gardens, experimenting with loose style watercolour technique to convey the beautiful rich colours and textures of the season.
Hosted by floral and textile artist Clare Robinson, this workshop is designed to introduce beginners and intermediates to the medium of loose watercolour, helping you nurture and develop your own style.
Clare will demonstrate over the two days and there will be plenty of one-on-one guidance to help enhance your observation and expressive painting skills. We will explore quick sketching with watercolours, pencils and pen too.
The workshop will include all art materials and flowers, but if you have your own art materials you are more than welcome to bring along.
Tea/coffee & biscuits will be provided but please bring your own lunch as the gardens are in a rural area with no lunch options.
Times: 10.00am - 3.00pm
Date: Thurdays 16th April & Friday 16th April
Cost: £170 for 2 day workshop
