Watercolour Workshop | Falling Leaves & Autumnal Landscapes

Welcome the first day of autumn with a cosy, atmospheric painting session celebrating the beauty of the changing season. In this workshop, we’ll explore how to capture the quiet magic of falling leaves, fading light, and earthy tones using watercolours.

Taking inspiration from Romantic artists like Caspar David Friedrich, we’ll work with layered washes, soft transitions, and muted autumnal palettes to create moody, expressive compositions that evoke a sense of stillness and reflection.

Eva will guide you through wet-on-wet and other techniques, colour mixing for warm, earthy hues, and composition ideas to help you paint your own autumn-inspired piece.

All materials are provided; just bring your creative spirit!

New to painting?

Eva Merendes

Hi, I am Eva Merendes, a Greek, London-based visual artist, art tutor and art workshop facilitator with an MA in Fine Art by City & Guilds of London Art School and a background in psychology and art psychotherapy. I work in a variety of mediums with a sweet spot for watercolours and the qualities this medium offers. I primarily create works on paper and wood panels, and I also make sculpture installations.

My work, two-dimensional or three-dimensional, celebrates life’s absurdities, drawing from existentialist and stoic philosophies. Through absurd, everyday, and comical expressions, I aim to challenge conventional notions of meaning, inviting viewers to critically reflect on the inherent absurdity in our quest for purpose. As an artist I have exhibited in numerous exhibitions across the UK and Greece.

With over 6 years' experience teaching adults and children, I offer personalised lessons to help you explore creativity and build confidence in your artistic skills.
