Announcing a brand new workshop by popular demand!
Welcome to Confident Colour Mixing for Botanical Watercolour!

Join me at Gifford Gallery for a hands-on workshop on Sunday March 30th and you'll learn the art of mixing colour to paint botanical watercolours. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, this event is perfect for all levels. I can guide you through the process, helping you gain confidence in creating beautiful and vibrant hues for your artwork.

When you leave this workshop you’ll know how to:
*Buy smarter in the art shop
*Create bright, saturated watercolour mixes
*Build from a limited palette
*Match the subject you see in front of you
*Keep your mixes from turning muddy
*Record and accurately recreate any mix
*Master natural and lifelike greens
*Create a ‘library’ of mixes you will refer to again and again

This day of hands-on exercises and plenty of experimentation will arm you with practical colour theory and mixing techniques you need to work towards fresh and lively botanical painting.

So whether you have been painting for a while and you have questions, or you’d simply like to start out with a strong foundation, this workshop will work to arm you with the colour knowledge, strategies and tips to ensure you can progress more quickly and confidently.

Don't miss this opportunity to unleash your creativity and explore the world of botanical watercolour. Sign up now and let's get mixing!

All materials provided – paint, paper, brushes, and natural subjects. Feel free to bring along your own preferred materials, including your watercolour palette!
