Hosted by Helen Worthington of Evendawn Arts With a full drawing provided in this workshop, you can enjoy simply painting this cheeky summer Seagull in lovely watercolours, and at the end you’ll have a fun friend to take home – although do watch out for your chips! We’ll do some ‘warm-up’ practice first - trying different brushes and tools, and mixing paints - so that you can be confident when it comes to painting the Seagull itself. There’ll be the opportunity to learn how to use masking fluid, and you’ll be shown how to create the fabulous texture in the rocks the gull is standing on. Please don’t forget to bring something with you to carry your project home in – a small lidded tray or box will be fine. All Welcome (Age 12 upwards). Full instructions will be given to everyone
