Join Allie Pottinger and I at Clonterbrook Studios for a two part taster day in water based media!

Participants will be split into two groups to experience a taster session in Watercolour with Allie Pottinger, botanical illustrator in watercolours, and an introduction to acrylics with me. Both sessions will last approx two hours, with a break for lunch and a debrief with a glass of bubbly at the end.

It is always a real treat to spend time at Clonterbrook and you cannot help but be inspired by the beautiful tranquil surroundings. Suitable for beginners and no experience in either media required. We hope that this will give you a taste of how to use each medium with expert guidance from Allie Pottinger, watercolour illustrator and professional acrylic landscape artist.

All materials provided but please bring a packed lunch, a sketchbook and pencil and an apron!

You will come away with a painting in each media inspired by the lovely bluebells at Clonterbrook and a wealth of knowledge

Places are limited to 6 in each workshop - if you would like to book your place please CLICK HERE.
