About the Workshop
Sharon Gibson: 4 Hour Workshop - Focus on Flowers 1 - Sweetpeas
Sharon adores the scent of sweetpeas when they are growing on her allotment, and loves to fill her home with their small but mighty blooms. They are the quintessential English cottage garden flower and this is your chance to capture their beauty in watercolour.
This course was nearly called ‘little puddles of joy’ as this is the feeling that will arise when you start to add pigment to the puddles of water that you make on your watercolour paper. Sharon will share this technique with you and show you how to create translucent petals and twirling tendrils. Unfortunately she cannot capture the scent, but every participant will take home a small posy along with their beautiful paintings.
Some key learning points:
Dry into wet watercolour – pushing the pigment
Thirsty brush to remove excess water and paint
