Description
Who can resist picking up a pebble and holding it in your hand to admire its colours, textures and patterns. In this fun workshop we will explore a variety of ways to work with pebbles as your inspiration using beautiful subtle colour mixes (with some neat shortcuts to creating a soft muted palette). Working with watercolour techniques to create textures and pattern, and looking at making abstract compositions using printed shapes and mark-making, we will create a collection of images to use for cards or wall art and a teeny-tiny book! There will be lots of demos & step-by-step instruction in this fun and informal workshop.
