3.5 Hr Advanced Watercolour Painting Class and Progression Studio

The next step for watercolour lovers: Master advanced techniques and transform your ideas into polished artworks.



3.5 hours Class size 1 to 8 guests

  £75 - £80 (Earlybird price of £75 applies if you book into a public session 30+ days ahead, otherwise £80 per guest when you book for 1 guest, £75/guest for 2+ guests) (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Whether you’ve graduated from our introductory workshop or have already built a solid foundation elsewhere, this 4-hour session is designed to help you move beyond basic exercises and begin developing your own unique artistic voice.
You won't find any rigid, one-size-fits-all tutorials here. Instead, you'll receive personalised 1-to-1 guidance within a small group setting, tailored specifically to your current level and goals. You can choose from three flexible paths:
【Path A】 The Project Hub: Bring a piece you've been longing to start (e.g., complex travel photos or landscapes). Your mentor will provide technical troubleshooting for challenges like atmospheric skies and urban perspective, or guide you through the basics of Portraits and human structure.
【Path B】 4-Week Illustration Course: Join a structured four-session journey to systematically bridge the gap between hobbyist and artist.
【Path C】 Inspiration & Skill Building: Choose a piece from our extensive studio library of professional art books. We will analyse and master-copy the work together to build your technique and confidence.

A Note on the student's painting you See on the sample:
Some of the intricate pieces you see here are the result of several sessions of dedicated work, rather than a single afternoon. Behind every perfect painting is a pile of practice sketches. Don't be intimidated—we celebrate every stage of growth!

The Materials We Use:
We believe that using the finest materials is the key to truly falling in love with watercolour. That’s why we provide only the best for our students:
Paper: Arches 300gsm, 100% cotton paper — a world-standard choice for professional watercolour.
Paints: A curated selection of artist-grade paints from leading brands, including Daniel Smith, Winsor & Newton, Schmincke, and Sennelier, chosen for their exceptional pigment quality and beautiful colour range.
Brushes: Soft squirrel hair brushes for beautiful, fluid strokes.
Our Unique Preparation: To ensure a flawless painting experience, your paper is professionally wet-mounted by the instructor before you arrive. This crucial, time-consuming process prevents the paper from buckling, allowing you to paint with freedom on a perfectly flat surface.
