2 Hour SEASCAPES – Watercolour/Ink and Pastel

This 2 hour-long Live Zoom workshop includes instruction and demonstration.  It covers how to create a simple expressive seascape with great light, energy and movement, concentrating on composition. It will teach you to be FREE and EXPRESSIVE in your painting, to sketch more and be more fluid.
