This watercolour class is for those with a bit of experience in painting with watercolour, or as a follow-on for people who have done the beginners watercolour class with Warren. Students can paint whatever they would like to during the course. You are welcome to bring your own projects or to choose from the tutors wide selection which includes photographs and reproductions of other artists paintings. The tutor will offer demonstrations and one-to-one support to build your skills and confidence throughout the course.
Student testimonials:
It was a really good atmosphere, Warren is very good in welcoming all, the teaching was great, very knowledgable, encouraging, entertaining, all one would like form a course.
The tone of a group is set by its head and Warren's nice demeanor made for a friendly easy going group.
Please bring a few watercolour brushes of various sizes, ideally half a dozen brushes from fairly small to fairly big and a few in between.

Latecomer
If a course has already started, please call the office as it may be possible to join after the start date. This may only be possible if the course is not already full, if it is not disruptive for the other students and you are aware that you have missed a percentage of the course and the tutor will not have time to catch you up. This will be at discretion of the Folk House. We run our courses termly, so it might be best to start at the beginning of the course.
