Painting with Watercolour for Beginners (8-week course)

Lionel Bowen LibraryMaroubra, NSW
Jan 20, 2026 at 10 am to Mar 10, 2026 at 12 pm AEDT
Overview

Discover the beauty of watercolour painting in this 8-week course.

Watercolour painting is a beautiful visual art form, although it has a reputation for being unforgiving due to its quick-drying nature. With a bit of practice and a few basic techniques, we'll continue to guide you on steering clear of common pitfalls.

This class is for beginners only, and have not attended any previous watercolour class.

Participants must bring their own paintbrushes; we recommend 4-6 premium artist brushes.

Class dates: The class meets on Tuesdays from 20 January to 10 March 2026, from 10am to 12pm. You only need to register once to be able to attend the full course.
