Charity Online Daffodil Watercolour Workshop

 

We are very happy to launch our new Charity Online Daffodils Watercolour Workshop with Claire Warner in aid of Hospice UK.

£10 from each workshop bought goes directly to Hospice UK and support The National Garden Scheme and their Spring Flower Open Gardens.  Have a look at their website and see if there's a garden open near you.

The workshop is suitable for all levels of artist including Beginners, so if you'd like to have a go, this is perfect.  Claire teaches in an easy to follow step by step style.

(Professionally filmed and edited by the Storey brothers).

Learn how to mix and apply watercolour paint, master the wet in wet technique used, discover how to create the daffodils trumpet shape and find the contrast and shadows needed, but most of all just enjoy this happy and colourful subject whilst painting.

We also have a Daffodils Materials Box available in our Online Shop with everything in that you would need for this workshop.

Your Online Watercolour Workshop will be sent to your email as a PDF document.

The PDF will include:

A link to your online watercolour workshop video

A materials list of what you need

A paint chart of the colours used

Art tips from Claire

Images of all the stages of the drawing and painting

YOU MUST SAVE THE PDF TO YOUR DEVICE WITHIN 30 DAYS, IT IS THEN YOURS TO KEEP

Enjoy Spring and welcome the sunshine with these bright and beautiful flowers.

The Workshop and the Materials Box are both available to buy from the Treetops Website

Bid on 2 Watercolour places for Hospice UK Charity Auction

Treetops is supporting Hospice UK this year by donating an auction lot for their UK Gala Dinner.

We have donated two places for a Watercolour Class

(to be taken by end of 2019)

Bids are being taken online from today.

As the national charity for hospice care, they champion and support the work of more than 200 member organisations, which provide hospice care to around 360,000 people across the UK each year.  This support helps hospices to deliver the highest quality care, and your support with this event can help them to ensure they continue to provide their vital services in the future and so that everyone who needs hospice care, gets hospice care.

If you were thinking of booking a summer or autumn term class, this would be a great idea to not only book a place but also support a very worthy cause.

Bids are opening at £75.....
