About this event
If you like to paint birds, this beautiful little Fairy wren with red gum flowers and leaves in the background is an ideal subject to paint in watercolour.
Participants will use quality Winsor and Newton watercolour paints and will learn how to simplify the shape of the bird and the background.
Using a limited palette of 5 colours, participants will be guided to mix the colours of the bird and make it a distinct focal point. Then participants will learn to create a softer background without distracting attention from your main subject.
This workshop is suitable for beginners and intermediate level.
