In this class, we'll be painting one of these wonderful birds on lovely thick watercolour paper. We'll start with some exercises to test our colours and to practise our techniques, then Alex will guide you through painting the magpie from start to finish.
All materials are provided for use within the class and the line art is provided to begin with if you aren't comfortable drawing.
We'll have a short break in the middle, so please bring something along for lunch (a fridge and microwave are available to use). Tea and coffee are provided.
This event is perfect for beginners and experienced artists alike. Alex will take you through the process, ensuring you have a wonderful time unleashing your creativity.
So what are you waiting for? Let's grab our brushes and bring this iconic Australian bird to life on paper!
