Getting started with watercolour

June 12, 2020

At the end of 2019, I asked my Instagram followers what they wanted me to Blog about in 2020 and the overwhelming response I got was “Geometry and Watercolour”.

Well, its now June, we are a couple of months into the Corona virus lockdown and high time I got started…

So after a little thought and given there are already lots of free geometry resources available, I thought I would start by taking a look at getting started with watercolour!

This post will focus on paint and paper and will include some of my recommendations. If this is of interest read on! If not then we will see you next time :-)

Day 2 of the course at the Prince's School (11th of November) took off in an almost literal burst of colour as Sam started to unpack and layout the powdery pigments and dishes of paint that we would spend the day working with. We all crowded round the desk laden with colour just waiting for the chance to jump in!
