Watercolour Painting Day
Overview
Artist, Julie Hyde has put together a day’s course, demonstrating the various techniques of watercolour painting.
Julie will demonstrate the different ways that watercolours can be applied and how to plan and build up, stage by stage your own watercolour pictures. You will try out different techniques experimenting with wet on wet, basic washes and dry brush work, giving you confidence to use these for your own pictures.
Julie will explain the mysteries of paper stretching and will advise you on the vast rage of selection of equipment that is available in the art shops. Working from photographs or still life groups she will talk about how to plan paintings and demonstrate how to build up your painting. Then you will work through one, two or maybe even three paintings and Julie will help you through each stage.
As a complete beginner it will take you through the whole process of watercolour painting but there will also be plenty of ideas for the more experienced artist.
Basic material will be provided, but if you have your own or want to use different medium please bring it along.
PLEASE NOTE: if you have done this workshop before, don't worry as we will paint different pictures each time.

Really good day, learnt lots of techniques and produced three paintings. Julie was helpful, knowledgeable and supportive. Would definitely recommend.
I really enjoyed this day. Julie was very informative and she worked really hard all day showing us different techniques, advising and guiding. We did three paintings which was excellent. Julie was very friendly and hospitable. I would certainly be interested in doing something like this again. Many thanks for organising it.
The day was lovely, steady pace. The instructor made us feel welcome and explained the different stages. Came round and gave advice when needed.
Would definitely book again.
Had a great day with Julie. Very proud of my poppies produced in the afternoon session. It’s the 2nd time I’ve been and really enjoy Julie’s instruction ..... and humour.
It was a lovely day.; filled with camaraderie, learning and laughter.
