In this workshop we won't really be painting 'a thing' so it is really great for any beginners with less to no drawing experience. It'll be a great way to gain an understanding of how colour actually works along side water, air, tempreture and so on. In the class we'll create a lovely sketchbook filled with experiments, textures and notes that we'll bind together at the end of the class. There'll also be time towards the end to do more finalised pages separate from the sketchbook.
