Join this watercolour pencil workshop at The Blackbird in Padbury and spend a cosy Saturday morning getting hands-on with a wonderful new craft. This relaxed session is designed for complete beginners and anyone looking to slow down, switch off, and enjoy making art in a friendly, social setting.
Inspired by seasonal landscapes and nature, you'll learn simple watercolour pencil techniques step-by-step while creating your own beautiful artwork. There's absolutely no pressure and no prior experience is needed – your encouraging teachers from Art Friends will provide a calm, supportive space where you can comfortably explore your creative side.
During this creative morning, you'll:
  • Learn beginner-friendly watercolour pencil techniques
  • Explore colour blending, layering, and adding water for soft, painterly effects
  • Create your own finished artwork inspired by nature
  • Enjoy a relaxed and social environment at a welcoming local gem
  • Receive helpful guidance and encouragement throughout the session
All of the necessary art materials are provided for you, so you can simply show up as you are. This class is just as suitable for first-timers as it is for hobby artists looking for a rewarding creative reset.
By the end of the workshop, you'll feel completely recharged after a morning of mindful crafting. You'll walk away with a unique, handmade nature illustration to take home and look back on as a lovely keepsake of your day.
What you'll get
A completed artwork.

Hi, I’m Diana Johnson, a professional fine artist and experienced art tutor specialising in various mediums, including watercolour, acrylic, pencil, and oil pastels; and even oil painting for those willing to commit to multiple sessions. Over the years, I’ve taught hundreds of students, and my workshops are designed for all skill levels. I especially love working with beginners, many of whom have never picked up a paintbrush before. Seeing their excitement and pride in their own creations after just a class or two is what makes teaching so rewarding for me :)
