Arts Experience at Loyalist

Course Overview: This one-day watercolour workshop will focus on creating beautiful skies and water with greater confidence. Through demonstrations and guided instruction, participants will explore the wet-on-wet technique, an essential watercolour wash that is particularly effective for capturing the softness, movement and atmosphere of skies and water.

The instructor will complete two full demonstrations throughout the workshop, providing step-by-step guidance and practical techniques that participants can apply to their own work. Participants will have dedicated painting time to practice these techniques and work towards completing their own painting.

Skill Level:  Best suited for some experienced painters, but all levels will be accommodated.
