Course Overview

A fun workshop class jam-packed with sketch info and tips.

This workshop is designed to provide beginners with a solid foundation with ink and watercolour sketching techniques. You will learn a range of essential skills to kickstart your creative journey.

Groups are kept relatively small, meaning you are given one-on-one personal attention and allows the class to be interactive.
