Wednesday Afternoon — Beginners Watercolour Class
1:00pm – 2:45pm

Beginner’s 4-Week Watercolour Art Journey


This Wednesday Afternoon beginners’ block takes place in the studio alongside continuing watercolour artists while they are painting.


Beginners are taught as a dedicated block within the session, with clear, step-by-step guidance through the fundamentals of watercolour.

Painting alongside experienced artists allows you to observe the natural rhythm of the class, see techniques in practice, and gain a clear understanding of how the continuing classes work should you wish to continue after the beginners block.


Teaching, structure, and content are exactly the same as in other beginner classes. No previous experience is needed — everything is explained clearly and at a manageable pace.


You’ll be guided step by step through each painting, with clear demonstrations and plenty of time to practice.
Nothing is rushed… and everything is explained simply.
Whether you’ve never picked up a brush before, or feel unsure where to begin… you are so welcome here
