This essential 12-week course will guide you from first principles into confident paintings in a few weeks. Through step-by-step tutorials, tips, and tricks, tutor Nic Cowper will show you all the shortcuts you need to begin with watercolours and encourage good habits for your own practice.
Our adult workshops are open to participants aged 18 and over.
About the Tutor:
Nic Cowper, a keen landscape artist from an early age, received his first commission for a 3-meter oil tableau of historic scenes of Havant, which is still displayed at the council’s offices and featured on the BBC’s Catalogue of Publicly Owned Art.
Over the next decade, he captured landscapes in watercolours, appreciating their portability. In 2003, Nic returned to oils, painting popular pieces like “Boys in Dune.” A brief period of pastels followed before a decade of oil painting and a rediscovery of watercolours.
