Dynamic, Modern Watercolours – Board Mounted with Instructor Jacintha Krish

Watercolours don't have to be delicate and muted, nor do they have to be framed, matted or behind glass. In this workshop Jacintha will teach you the techniques to paint vibrant, dynamic watercolours. She demonstrates how the combination of watercolour with fine point acrylic ink pens make colours pop and highlight texture and detail. Bring a sense of abstraction to your painting, lending it a style that is uniquely its own. Using acrylic gel medium as your adhesive you will learn how to mount watercolour paper on board for a simpler, modern look. No framing, mats or glass needed. Lots of individual attention.
