If you’ve ever wanted to use watercolours in a loose and expressive way, free from the constraints of all the dos and don’ts associated with this medium, this is your chance to throw caution to the wind and let your hair down.

The subject matter will be varied, and you will have the opportunity to experiment with a variety of less conventional methods of applying paint, resulting in some unusual and exciting pictures.
