Description:

Join Instructor Susan Pearson for a creative journey into making your watercolour paintings shine. While colour plays a vital role, the thoughtful use of white spaces and watercolour techniques can bring your artwork to life. In this 5-session series, you'll learn how to plan ahead and use well-placed whites to improve your creations.  

Susan will provide image references, but participants are welcome to bring their own for a personal touch. Bring your imagination and curiosity, and let's explore what we can create together!  

Participants are required to bring their own supplies. Click here for the supply list and to learn more about Susan.
