The course commences on Sunday evening with welcome drinks – a good time to get to know each other; non-painting partners are most welcome. (This course is not suitable for beginners.)
Cornwall has a special place in Louise’s affections as her family spent many happy holidays here in her childhood. She draws inspiration and harmony from the fantastic scenes and dramatic scenes on offer. Louise strives to capture the essence of each scene with your vibrant use of watercolour. She is a popular artist, demonstrator, her lively and encouraging style of teaching is infectious, you will find yourself enjoying the same journey she experiences as she applies paint to capture the excitement and vibrancy of the scene. Her ability to inspire others is impressive; it’s no wonder she is in demand by Art groups as a demonstrator!
Louise is currently tutoring 5-day courses at Mullion Cove Hotel, where the dramatic scenery is a huge inspiration to any budding artist from the vast cliff tops to the quaint harbour at Coverack. Louise will share her passion and joy of painting in this medium and reveal all the tricks she uses to achieve particular effects. You are sure to feel inspired and keen to paintbrush to paper. You will need to bring your normal painting equipment, further information about the course and suggested equipment will be sent to you by Louise nearer the date.
