beginner watercolour classes – Harrow Open Studios

Tuesday morning watercolour classes

Complete Beginners Watercolour workshops this autumn

Kids back at school, off to Uni? How about a couple of peaceful, creative hours just for you? 💛

I’m running individually bookable beginner-friendly watercolour classes every Tuesday morning, 10–12, at the brand new Art Park in central Harrow (yes — the old Debenhams car park, with parking right behind and great transport links 🚉🚗).

Coming up:
✨ Flowers 16 Sept
✨ Dragonflies 23 Sept
✨ Sea Pebbles 30 Sept
✨ Beginner Landscapes 7 Oct
✨ A Meadow 14 Oct

I’ll provide the paper — just bring your paints, brushes, palette and a jam jar for water. (If you don’t have any yet, I can recommend a fab beginner kit for under £20!).

Come and unwind, splash some colour, and enjoy some proper me-time. Beginners very welcome!

Perfect for those who are brand new to watercolour. Each session is individually bookable. The sessions will cover essential techniques in a relaxed and supportive environment.

🗓Tuesdays throughout September and October

10am – 12 noon

A gentle and fun introduction to watercolour painting!
