Revealing the technical means of rendering sublte and beautiful effects in watercolour.

Inspired by the works of JMW Turner, JJ Hilder, and Blamire Young, in this step-by-step series of demonstrations and exercises we'll be covering the basic tools, and the technical means, of creating subtle and beautiful effects in watercolour.

Essentials of Drawing - Wednesday, 6.30pm to 9.00pm- $320

Join us on this journey to technical competency and creative freedom.

Humans have always created hand-made images of our physical world. The more visually articulate we are, the clearer is our individual expression. Over millennia we have developed a universal visual language, and its essence is in representational drawing.
