I’m teaching various courses around Wellington, New Zealand and Japan in 2026.
Below is my teaching schedule – watch for a class near you.

Watercolour Washes & Edges Workshop

Learn the core techniques of watercolour and create landscapes, still life and placing people in the landscape. Watercolour is all about control of the water on the brush, the pigment in your palette and the dampness of the paper. Only practice will guarantee good control of these elements. To make that practice fun we will use vibrant colours and make beautiful edges and washes. Explore wet into wet techniques making big wet areas and blending colours.
