This course introduces an unusual but effective mix of media. Tutor Helen Hanson was a professional etcher and has developed a style of working in ink and dry coloured pencil which creates a similar look. Unlike pen and wash, her method is not water-based, nor does it involve “colouring in”. Instead, the two media are integrated as you work, bringing the landscape to life with layers of rich colour, mark-making in ink and the use of easy to learn creative techniques.
