I've love running workshops and demonstrations. I've taught or demonstrated at the Urban Sketchers Symposiums in Singapore in 2015, Manchester in 2016, Chicago in 2017, Porto in 2018 and Amsterdam in 2019. I've taught workshops and sketched with the Urban Sketchers in many cities of the world, and for art and watercolour societies locally and internationally - I love to travel :-)

In Australia I hope to do some workshops in Melbourne, Hobart and Perth, as well as in and around Sydney.

Workshop and demonstration ideas include 'Drawing out the Details', 'Watercolour for Beginners', 'Special Effects in Watercolour', 'Travel Sketching', 'Watercolour Sketching', 'Plein Air and/or Urban Sketching', 'Colour Mixing', 'Botanicals', 'Working with Inks, 'Mastering Watercolours', 'Watercolour Bootcamp', 'Watercolour 101', 'Understanding Watercolour'.

Demonstration topics include 'Special Effects in Watercolour', 'Colour Mixing' (suitable for all media), 'Mixed media', 'Inky Fingers - Pen, Brush, Ink, Letters and Line'. (looking at the different tools used for drawing and writing over the centuries including lettering and drawing demonstrations), 'Botanicals', 'Plein air Sketching'/'Travel sketching'/Sketching with Watercolour/Urban Sketching.

Classes in Watercolour

I run weekly classes in Watercolour at my home studio on Monday nights and Tuesday mornings. The Tuesday class is via Zoom!

I also run occasional workshops for various art shops, societies or groups. See above list.

Can't come to a class? Consider on-line tutoring!

On-line Tutoring

Need help with something? I am happy to answer questions, but if you need help with something that requires a demonstration with a particular technique, or help with a painting, a palette overhaul, get in touch and I'll see if I can help.
For a comprehensive foundation in watercolour consider my 13-lesson online course Mastering Watercolours.
To learn to draw and sketch from life, consider my 13-lesson online course Travel Sketching.
If you've completed Mastering Watercolours (or other comprehensive foundation course), try my 6-lesson extension course Special Effects in Watercolour.
Payment is simple through PayPal, Stripe or Australian bank transfer.
