I will demonstrate washes, layering, and explain transparency and opacity through small projects. There will be the opportunity for you to practice the washes and techniques. You will be able to use them in a finished painting. You are welcome to arrive from 9.45am for tea and coffee. Demonstrations will start at 10am and we finish at 4pm. Please bring your own lunch.

In previous years this has been a very successful workshop, if you would like to read a testimonial from the beginners workshop you can find this under the workshop tab on the main menu.
