1st March 2025, Otley- Highlands in Watercolour Workshop
The Highlands in Ink and Watercolour- A workshop by Matty Burnham
Venue: The Art Works, Courthouse Street, Otley, Yorkshire, LS21 3AN.
Date: 10am-4pm, Saturday 1st March 2025.
Price: £60 per person.
In this workshop we will be painting a Scottish Highland landscape, including a small cottage, with ink and watercolour (also often referred to as ‘line and wash’). During the workshop we will practice skills that help create a sense of light, achieve depth, and effectively simplify a composition.
The workshop is suitable for both beginner and intermediate watercolour artists. The approach is informal, supportive and friendly.
You are required to bring your own materials for this workshop. Please see below for further information on these, however you a very welcome to get in touch with me at anytime if you have any specific questions about the workshop. A further email containing key information will be emailed to all participants closer to the date.
Further Information:
If you can no longer attend this workshop, I am happy to offer a full refund providing you inform me 14 days before the date of the workshop.
The venue is accessible by wheelchair. If you have any specific accessibility requirements, let me know and I will do my best to support you with these.
There is a car park directly opposite The Art Works on Courthouse Street. This costs £3.50 for 7 hours or £4 for 8-10 hours.
Materials required:
You will need a pencil and an eraser.
Paper: I recommend using good quality cold pressed or rough cotton paper as this will make the techniques used easier to achieve.
Watercolours:
Recommended colours-
French Ultramarine Blue
Cobalt Blue
Cadmium Red
English Red (also called Light Red)
Yellow Ochre
Burnt Umber
You will need a mixing palette,
Please don’t worry if you don’t have these exact colours, alternative colours will work fine. I will support you with this.
Ink:
Waterproof ink is essential for this workshop.
Fine liners pens are probably the most convenient option (eg. Micron Sakura or Uni Pin fine liners are both good quality and completely waterproof).
Using a dip pen with India Ink is another good option.
I will be drawing with a fountain pen filled with waterproof ink.
Brushes:
Whichever paintbrushes you feel most comfortable with will be fine as long as they are suitable for watercolour. Both synthetic and natural hair will work fine.
Other materials:
You will need a pencil and an eraser.
The following materials are useful but not essential: masking tape, kitchen roll, white ink or gouache.
