Winter Scene Watercolour Class


Today we started to get Wintery!

We painted Lowther Church, which is in Cumbria near Lake Ullswater.

We had a lovely palette of colours to create different blues, mauves and browns.


We used some masking fluid on the roof of the church and used a toothbrush to splatter it over the tree areas, to help us create our leaves/branches for later on.


All the paintings look very different with the chosen colours.


We did some "glistening" to help create the leaves in the trees, this is when we spray the paper, and then drop the paint in and let it mix whilst gently dotting around the area with the paintbrush.






The 2012 dates are further down in the blog.

Places are going quickly, so please book soon.
