Learn to paint Watercolour at ThursArt with Charlotte
This block course of 8 hours tuition over 4 weeks costs $80, including materials for beginners.
Each session includes watercolour technique and a step by step instruction to complete a painting in the two hour session. There is always new lesson material for this block course each week. Charlotte uses an overhead camera projected onto a wall mounted 55 inch TV for easy viewing and social distancing.
All levels are welcome to come and make art in our friendly clubrooms. Bring your own paints and brushes and two sheets of A4 300gsm good quality (preferably 100% cotton) watercolour paper each week.
If you are a beginner I will loan you the kit, which consists of palette, brushes and paint and advise you what to buy at the end of the course. But you will need to bring your own 300gsm watercolour paper.
Tutor Charlotte Hird is a watercolour artist who teaches for Watercolour New Zealand, at Wellington Art Club and Wellington High School Community Education, Inverlochy Art School and various other locations.
Please email Charlotte to sign up now for the September block course, and indicate which session you prefer to attend, 2-4pm or 7-9pm. Also let me know what experience you have. Beginners welcome.
