Calling all young artists aged 7 to 99! Join us for a fun-filled morning where we’ll be painting vibrant, colourful creatures using various watercolour techniques.
In this lively workshop, your child will learn how to paint vibrant, colourful elephants, unicorns, butterflies and more using various watercolour techniques. Over the course of 2.5 hours, they'll discover the basics of watercolour painting, experiment with colour mixing and blending, and create their own beautiful artwork to take home and proudly display.
Don't fret if your little one (or you!) has never picked up a paintbrush before—this class welcomes artists of all experience levels, from complete beginners to budding Picassos. The focus is on imagination, experimentation, and fun!
During the session, your child will be introduced to the wonderful world of watercolours. They'll learn how to use different brushes, mix colours to create new shades, and apply various techniques to bring their seahorse to life on paper. The hands-on nature of the activity allows for plenty of creative exploration and joyful self-expression.
By the end of this artistic adventure, your child will have gained new skills, confidence in their creative abilities, and a unique seahorse painting to treasure. This experience is sure to spark their imagination and perhaps ignite a lifelong love for art.
Why not make it a family affair? This workshop is perfect for artists of all ages, so adults and siblings are welcome to join in the fun too. It's a brilliant opportunity for family bonding through creativity!

Hello, I’m a freelance illustrator working out of my studio in Hatch End, London. A few years ago I had a career change and am now a self taught freelance illustrator.
Although it’s still early days, I’ve been lucky that people like my style enough to commission and collaborate with me to create illustrations for their products. I've also completed a teaching qualification and love to share my painting style in my workshops.
My style is inspired by the feelings of freedom, energy and grace in dance. I try to bring that vitality and movement to everything I paint. My absolute favourite mediums to work in are watercolour and ink as they capture movement brilliantly with their fluid, splashy nature. They have an unpredictability that surprises with lots of happy accidents and they are so gestural and expressive.
I hope you’ll join me at one of my workshops in the near future.
Thanks for visiting me!
