Watercolour Painting Course - Beginners starts Dec 2 (8 sessions)
Event Information
About this event
In this course, participants make children portraits in celebration of childhood joys!
Beginning each class with moments of silent awareness, participants will be gently guided to make portraits of children in moments of joy, wonderment, awe and peace. As they do so, they may enjoy pleasant memories of the past, those carefree childhood days in the kampongs. Equipped with ink-and-wash illustrative watercolour techniques, participants will then bring these joyful moments to life!
What will you learn from the course?
Participants will learn ink-and-wash watercolour technique together with other watercolour techniques like dry-on-wet, wet-on-wet, flat wash, blooming and bleeding. They would also experience how other art mediums like coloured pencil, poster/acrylic paints may be used to add texture and intricate details to their artworks.
At the end of the course, participants would be able to paint with joy and confidence, while reconnecting with their inner child.
