Vibrant Watercolours with David Wilcox, Saturday 27th June 2026 - Walton Village Hall, Walton Back Lane, Chesterfield, Derbyshire S42 7LT
Let your watercolours sing out and join us for a glorious exploration of colour and contrast. Using your paint brushes in a loose and fluid way, David will show us how to portray this energetic saxophonist using simple techniques to make the best of this translucent and vibrant medium. Suitable for all abilities.
Does white paper scare you? Worried about drawing? We will use a series of traceable templates to get us started, so there is no need to be skilled with your drawing, instead concentrating purely on the joy of painting and mixing bold, fresh colours. After a short demonstration, David will show us how to create drama and use techniques to allow our watercolours speak. We will produce at least one finished painting by the end of the day. Why not join us?!
Suitable for all abilities.
Saturday 27th June 10 am – 3.00 pm. Refreshments provided and with everyone bringing a packed lunch. Parking is on site. This is a non-residential workshop.
A short materials list will be forwarded before the workshop, this will consist typically of a relatively basic watercolour set, brushes and some good quality paper.
