Experiment at this 2 day workshop by using watercolour and pastels while gaining a deeper understanding of composition and design. Leanne, a respected artist and teacher, will help you to understand how to push your paintings to the next level and share her influences and inspirations and demonstrate the different possibilities when using watercolour and then layering pastel over the top. Bring along a watercolour painting that didn't work or that you abandoned and take advantage of Leanne's helpful suggestions. Or work on a new painting based on a subject that inspires you. The aim of this weekend is to have fun and explore what you can do with the two different mediums in one painting. You may be surprised by the results!
