Katie will guide you through a series of simple, easy to follow techniques and demonstrate how to create a stylish composition from the comfort of home.

You will be provided with a printable pack containing reference images for the session, tips, tricks and a materials guide. This week will be a winter botanicals theme focusing on dried flowers, evergreens and a cooler colour palette.

Follow Katie's watercolour channel on youtube for a taste of the workshop here.

Beginners through to practising painters are welcome - this is an opportunity to connect and share ideas in a virtual setting.

For more information about the teacher click here.

For this virtual class you will need the following materials:

- A set of decent paint brushes.

- Watercolour Paper (at least 280gsm thickness, A4 or larger is best - you can buy these in pads)

- A watercolour tin set, or a set of paint tubes.

- A water glass and some kitchen roll or toilet roll (if you can find any - gasp!)

- A selection of things from around the home if you would prefer to make your own still life. (fruit, vases, books, jugs and leaves from the park are great. If you can get some flowers too thats a bonus.

Notes on Materials:

Paper - I use Daler Rowney Aquarelle paper - it has a good texture and holds lots of water.

Paints - I use a really special set by a very old brand called Schmincke Horadam which I would recommend only for people wanting to get more professional - they are very expensive but the pigment is the best! Windsor and Newton ‘s cotman travel set is a much more affordable but good quality set . Or you can get cheaper tubes and use a plate to mix on - colours are often brighter from a tube.

Brushes: Your brush collection will grow over time when you figure out the shapes and styles you like. A set by Da Vinci is a good place to start

I always have a bigger flat brush like one of these on hand too.
