Smidapaper company is happy to announce a new addition to our workshop lineup; a watercolour workshop for beginners by Esther Geh. Esther has an art studio at Straits Quay and has been actively painting and teaching watercolour for more than 5 years. Here's what you will learn at this workshop (in Esther's words);

You will be learning basic watercolour techniques, eg.how to lay down washes, create form ( a more 3d look), and have control over your paint etc.
You will also be working with a limited palette of primaries only, so will learn how to mix colours, including a range of secondaries, greys and browns.
We will be working from photographs, so we’ll talk about using photos for references, but I’ll also talk about the benefits of working from life.
I’ll also provide some tips on composition and how to plan a painting.

This workshop will kick off a series of classes which will guide beginner artists to develop their own style and to help them with pieces and subjects that they themselves choose.

Details of the workshop are as follows;
