CompetitionsHollyhock Watercolour Workshop with Ferie Sadeghi
About this event
Hollyhocks, with their predominant stems of brightly coloured, stand tall amongst the rest of the garden from spring to summer.
In this workshop you will learn how to mix the colours on the paper to create a multicolored background. This watercolour technique is called wet-on-wet. Then we use wet-on-dry technique to paint flower heads. By using darker shades of pink we paint the shadows to make the flower heads three-dimensional. We will mix the blue and yellow paint to make green for painting the stems and leaves.
This workshop is suitable for beginners and intermediate level. We will use artist quality Winsor & Newton watercolour paint for this workshop.
