Zoom watercolour painting class - painting a seascape

Another wonderful Zoom class on 2 August, with 4 students joining me to paint a seascape from the Archway Islands at Wharariki Beach at the top of the South Island of New Zealand.

It's amazing what everyone achieved in just 3 hours. And, as you can see, I was pretty darn chuffed.

Next Zoom class the first weekend (or so) of September. Maximum 10 students and those on my mailing list get first dibs, so make sure you sign up at www.walden.co.nz. I'm already looking forward to it :-)

A free lesson for you!

One of my all-time favourite paintings of a stormy day in a ruined Roman town in Spain.
