You’ll learn about a mix of media techniques combining ink with watercolour, gouache, watercolour pencils and pastels; and work from a variety of subjects, including still life, landscape (from images/photos) as well some figure and portrait. It promises to be a varied, exciting class and any existing student can book now.
