This course is intended for learners who are advanced or have previous experience in watercolour painting. It is not suitable for beginners to this subject.

Experiment with creative techniques using watercolours to explore a range of washes and other methods which allows you to broaden and develop your skills. Be inspired by watercolour artists and their paintings, focusing on their composition, colour, subject and its depth and form. All theories are supported by many visual examples and resources, and the techniques are shown each week by demonstrations from the tutor.

The lesson will be classroom based and supported by Google Classroom. This is our virtual learning space which will enhance your learning experience and will be used for resources, assessment, as well as to extend learning and support independent learning.  You will be able to access Google Classroom via your secure leicesterlearns account.
