Adult Watercolour Class: Refining Technique & Adding Depth

This class is perfect for those looking to refine their watercolour skills (or start their art journey) and take their work to the next level. We’ll focus on building more detailed, realistic paintings through layering and glazing techniques, helping you create depth, subtle transitions, and stronger compositions.

From monochromatic studies to still life and reflections, you'll explore a variety of subjects while learning how to control water and pigment more confidently. We'll also introduce some loose, expressive techniques along the way to keep the process painterly and fresh. It’s a fun, relaxed class with an emphasis on developing precision and a deeper understanding of the watercolour medium.

* We unfortunately cannot offer make up classes for a missed class

*taxes not included

You will provide your own supplies. This allows you to practice and work on your projects at home with the right tools and materials.
