This experimental, non-figurative watercolour course is designed to free the painter from any preconceived ideas of acceptability, success and failure, and just go with the flow of colour, feeling, and emotion. Using numerous watercolour techniques, mediums, and approaches, we will quite simply have fun with paint!
