About the Workshop
Spend a day exploring the art of portraiture in watercolour. This workshop focuses on techniques for creating expressive portraits using photographs as your starting point.
First-time portrait painters will work from high-quality reference images provided.
Returning students who have already completed a portrait workshop are welcome to bring their own image.
You’ll practice and develop essential skills, including:
🎨 Effective use of contrast
🎨 Colour mixing (with a focus on flesh tones)
🎨 Wet-in-wet techniques (for smooth transitions in skin)
🎨 Negative painting (for depth and texture in hair)
🎨 Detail work (facial features)
💡 Please note: this workshop focuses on watercolour painting techniques, not drawing.

Use of class paints and brushes (or bring your own if you prefer)
