"Splashing Out"

Home Up Courses Exhibitions "Splashing Out" "Starting Out"

  In April 2004, Fiona Pruden is launching a new series of watercolour classes

  where you will be encouraged to extend your existing knowledge and gain the confidence to develop your own individual style.

   From Monday 14th June until Tuesday 13th July, from 9.30am to 12.30pm, these classes will run every Monday or Tuesday mornings (ie join for all 5 Mondays or all 5 Tuesdays) and are designed for those who have mastered the basics and are looking to ‘splash out’ and take the next steps to producing successful watercolours.  If you want to loosen up, enjoy painting more freely, learn new techniques, consolidate what you already know, or just experiment with exciting colour mixes, these classes are for you. 

  Fiona is finally responding to numerous requests to start sharing some of her painting secrets.  She has gained a wealth of experience through 10 years of dedicated hard work.  During this time she has studied with some of our most exciting contemporary watercolourists including James Fletcher-Watson, David Curtis, John Yardley, Shirley Trevena, Hazel Lale, Bryan Thatcher etc. 

  You will be encouraged to work freely and intuitively, whilst understanding the theory you need and approaching your work methodically.  As part of a small friendly group you will have the freedom to enjoy trying new techniques and will have the opportunity to build up your confidence.  Class sizes will be kept small to ensure everyone receives the individual attention they need.  The cost of each lesson is £15.00, or there is a 10% discount if you pay for all 5 classes at the beginning (ie £67.50 in total).

  The Willow Watercolours studio is set in a peaceful rural location where you can concentrate fully on your work.  Classes can be run at your own venue if required.    Group sessions are welcomed
