Paint with Steve Bretel in Watercolour
in Exmoor and the stunning North
Devon Coast, where you will paint
cascading rivers, moorland valleys,
harbours and coastal scenes.
There are many stunning locations
including the River Barle and valley, the
harbour town of Lynmouth which was
called 'Little Switzerland' by the
Victorians, Porlock Weir, Valley of the
Rocks and the villages of Winsford,
Withypool and Malmsmead where there
is plenty to sketch and paint. There are
also other quaint villages for us to visit.
Steve is full of enthusiasm about
painting and teaching. He loves the
challenge and expressiveness of
watercolour especially, and would like
everyone to experience this excitement.
Each day will start with an introduction
to the subject and a half-hour
demonstration to the group, then
regular one to one demonstrations
given throughout the day as required.
Steve will show the importance of
making sketches and values studies
before deciding on compositions, and
will cover the underpinning theory, as
well as the practice of every aspect
needed. Each day will conclude with a
sharing and review of participant's
work, leading to individual action plans
for development at each of the
following sessions and for after the
course ends.
