About this event

Have you always wanted to paint birds with watercolour but don't know how to start? If so, this workshop is for you.

I will teach you different techniques to use watercolour and paint birds.

We will start with some experiment time where you'll play with the paint to see the different effects you can achieve.

Then, you will paint birds applying what you've learn during the experiment phase. You will paint 6 different birds and take them all home with you.

During the workshop you'll get:

  • Step by step guidance to use watercolour paint
  • New skills to apply to your watercolour projects
  • An A4 sheet with 6 different birds to take home
  • The option to upcycle your mug with them (see the event here)
  • 2.5 hours of creativity in a relaxed atmosphere

All material is provided. No previous experience needed.

You can also come back on September 25th to upcycle your mug with the little birds you painted. See the ticket options to book your seat for both workshops at a discount price. Here is the link for the mug upcycling workshop for more information.

Frequently asked questions

Does the workshop have a disabled access?

Unfortunately no, we will be in the upstairs room and there is no lift.

Can I bring a picture of the bird I want to paint?

Yes, you are welcome to bring pictures of the birds you'd like to paint.

Organized by

Nature has always guided me and that’s how I became a marine ecologist 15 years ago; I thought I would help the planet. But it is through my upcycling creations and my paintings that I feel like I am making a difference. And now I want to teach people how to upcycle their own items so we can reduce waste together on a bigger scale.
