We will explore different approaches
to using water-soluble pencils,
watercolours and water soluble pens
with some step-by-step paintings and
the opportunity to produce your own
paintings.
On our first day, Carole will
demonstrate a wide range of
techniques for using each medium, and
show you how to paint skies, trees,
water, as well as two step-by step
paintings. The first one will be a
landscape using water soluble pencils
and then we will do a figure study
using the pens with watercolour
added. These exercises will help you
master the many ways these inspiring
media can be used to enhance your
paintings.
On subsequent days you can choose a
subject of your choice. You can paint a
landscape, a portrait, a seascape etc
or work from Carole's examples on
display. Please bring suitable reference
photos.
Water soluble pencils are an extremely
versatile medium. They can be used as
a drawing medium or magically turn
into a watercolour when wetted.
Water soluble pens can also be an ideal
sketching medium and produce
exciting effects when watercolours are
added.
Carole's approachable style of
teaching will enable you to get the
most from your paintings as she will
assist you with plenty of one-to-one
tuition.
Also, through a combination of
demonstrations and tips & techniques
she will show you how to get the
results you want whether a complete
beginner or a more accomplished
artist.
