Flowers and Trees Made Simple with Susie Murphie
Saturday 19 March, 10.00am - 4.00pm
Overview
Date: Saturday 19th March 2022
Time: 10.00am – 4.00pm
Learn how to simplify these tricky subjects and make them loose and confident.
Most flowers have a ‘signature’ element that helps us identify it. Learn simple drawing skills so we know to include the important parts and leave out the rest.
Trees can be difficult too. You will be taught how to make them into a quality part of your painting…instead of a distraction.
You’ll learn to mix beautiful colours from a limited palette and most importantly how to control the tones which will give all your work greater appeal. All you have to do is turn up!
Susie Murphie is a watercolour artist with more than 30 years experience. She shares her passion through teaching; skilfully capturing a moment in time with landscape, still life and animal subjects.
