Norfolk Broads Watercolour Class


We enjoyed an atmospheric Norfolk Broads class with beautiful sunset colours.

There was a bit of drawing on arrival, getting the boats and windmill in place.

Finishing off at the end of the day with reflections and shadows.
  



 






At the end of the class it's lovely to see one another's work.

Beginners and Refreshers Watercolour Class


Welcome to our new intake!

A brilliant class, everyone so keen and calm, it was a really enjoyable day.

Claire spent the day sharing techniques and tips and by the end of the day we had some fantastic watercolours. 








We hope to see you all again, keep practicing!

This term we have just ONE place remaining on Wildflowers in the Pyrenees on Tuesday 10 May

and THREE places on our brand NEW PEBEO paints class;  special effect glass paints which we paint onto board, and the theme for this class will be Butterflies and Kingfishers.  Great fun and a great technique.


The Yorkshire Dales Watercolour Class


Our new Watercolour term started with us painting The Yorkshire Dales

It was a crazy weather day; beautiful sunshine, huge hailstones and finally snow!


We had a lovely gallery of paintings to share at the end of the day.

Great skies and some excellent dry-stone walls.

Seascapes in Watermixable Oils


We had a great end to the term with our second Watermixable Oils class.


The paintings were fantastic, so much colour, texture and atmosphere, they were especially great because so many people were trying Oils for the first time.




















Art at Treetops is having an Easter break and we will be back next term with some great subjects, see the blog post below
