Robert Returns by popular demand to run a 5 week art course studying the use of dip pen, ink and watercolour.
Historically, very popular as a sketching medium, Pen and Wash is a highly portable, expressive and versatile way of capturing ideas.
Throughout the ages, great painters have set down their first impressions using a pen, ink and a little watercolour.
Come and explore this method of drawing. We will try out metal nibs, quills and bamboo pens. Washable and non-washable ink, and basic watercolour methods
Materials supplied. $100 for the 5 weeks, Starts November 1st (12:30 - 2:30)
