NEW YEAR, NEW CHALLENGE

Time to put a new date in your diary to start with an entirely new season of classes for the complete beginner in watercolour painting.

The new classes begin at 9.30am on Monday 8th January 2007, and anyone can join – even if you haven’t touched a paintbrush since school days. For just £13 per week, the classes build into a complete course covering all the techniques you will ever need, from making marks and your first washes using different types of brushes, through everything you will ever need to know about colour mixing, light, contrast and tonal values. Later on, we introduce you to some more technical areas like improving your drawing and understanding perspective. A schedule of the first terms’ classes is attached.

All class sizes are kept to a maximum of six people, so you always get the personal attention you need. The atmosphere is sociable and relaxed – with plenty of cappuccino and biscuits to keep us going - and many lasting friendships develop over the terms. We also organise various activities that everyone can join in with later in the year, from video evenings, demonstrations and visits to London galleries.

For more information including details of materials needed for joining these classes, please contact Fiona Pruden, 01438 840977 or 07956 537140 or email to fiona.pruden@btopenworld.com. Classes for more experienced painters are also available.
