Watercolour Workshop

Join us for an online afternoon of watercolour painting with local Artist and teacher Eleanor Amiradaki. The group will be exploring a variety of watercolour techniques whilst learning the basics of colour mixing, blending and creating tonal variations and unique compositions. Referencing the works of both traditional watercolour artist’s and contemporary watercolour artists to expand the possibilities of working in this beautiful medium. Demonstrations of technique and 1:1 guidance will be available to each student through the Zoom art workshop.
