Carl March, like all our Watermill painting tutors, always takes his sketchbook with him wherever he goes, especially on his morning walks. He recommends that you do the same when you join him for his week-long course here in July.
He has just sent me this lovely watercolour (above), and he says: “I made the pencil sketch below while on a morning walk last month, then used it as a reference for the watercolour painted later at home.â€
Carl says that observation is the key to good artwork. He took a photograph is a colour guide but his 10-minute sketch was vital for the end result.
Bring your sketchbook, pencil and paints to capture our wonderful locations in unspoiled rural Tuscany.
We have 11 painters booked in for Carl’s course, but still have room for a couple more (and their non-painting partners, too, if they’d like to join them.) We would love to welcome you here.
