Course Description:

This 6-week course is designed for those drawn to painting for its mindful, restorative qualities, and perhaps who have felt intimidated by watercolour’s reputation for being “too difficult.”

Through specially curated practice exercises exploring a range of topics, you’ll familiarise yourself with the medium and practice, working with it rather than against it, so you can learn to trust your flow.

Each session will use a circle-format approach for sharing and discussion to create a group dynamic grounded in reflection. Gently led by Nick, these conversations will help you overcome obstacles and identify what resonates with you in the creative process.
