Holidays Listing

Join Nicki Saunders on this wonderful

opportunity to paint around Buxton in

Watercolour.

We will get out each day on location and

gather subject material using photos

and sketches which can be pencil/pen

or small watercolour studies and then

we will return to the studio to develop

these paintings.


We will sketch on location around

Buxton and subjects will include the

Pavilion Gardens, The Opera House, the

Crescent and the main high street in

Buxton, all of which are within walking

distance of the hotel and each other.


Subjects will include the historic

buildings of Buxton and gardens with

trees, bushes, water and reflections.


Nicki's enthusiasm for painting is

reflected in her tuition and she will

surely inspire you in your paintings. She

will give you plenty of guidance and

encouragement in her process which

will include plenty of one-to-one tuition.


She will start the day getting everyone

sketching using either watercolour,

pencil or inks to capture the essence of

a scene which will include key

compositional requirements including

aerial perspective and linear

perspective.


Once back in the studio she will work on

a project on a Step-by-Step basis

where you can paint your scene using

the techniques that she is applying to

her painting or you can do your own

thing totally. Either way she will give

you plenty of one-to-one tuition.
