Summer Flowers Watercolour Workshop

Saturday 9 August, 3-5pm

Grounded Café, Chippenham

Watercolour paint set with a pink and white flower and painted colour swatches on paper.

Join me for a relaxing and creative afternoon of painting beautiful summer flowers in watercolour!

In this workshop, you’ll learn the techniques of watercolour painting while capturing the vibrant colours of seasonal blooms.

I’ll guide you step-by-step in creating your own floral painting, which you’ll take away with you along with a booklet of tips to help you continue painting should you wish.

Materials, equipment and fresh flowers will be provided. All are welcome, whether you’re an art enthusiast or have never picked up a paintbrush before!

We’ll have exclusive use of Grounded’s upper floor and a complimentary drink is included with your ticket.

This workshop is now fully booked, but cancellations do happen, so drop me a message if you’d like to be contacted if a space comes up!

Escape Into Landscapes Watercolour Workshop

Saturday 20 September, 3-5pm

Grounded Café, Chippenham

A hand holding a paintbrush over a watercolour palette with multiple colours on a wooden table.

Join me for a relaxed, creative afternoon of painting your dream landscape!

Whether it’s rolling hills sprinkled with wildflowers, a serene lakeside sunset, a whimsical forest path, or even a view from your favourite holiday spot — the choice is yours.

I’ll take you through the basic techniques of watercolour painting, then guide you through each stage, from sketching and colour mixing to adding those magical finishing touches that bring your scene to life. You’ll head home with your own painting, plus a booklet of tips and inspiration to keep you painting.

All materials (and plenty of encouragement) are provided and all levels are welcome, whether you’re an art enthusiast or have never picked up a paintbrush before. No experience needed, just a love of colour and creativity!

The only thing you’ll need to bring is the picture you’d like to paint! This can be a printed image or a photo on your phone (or you can paint from your imagination if you’re feeling brave!).

We’ll have exclusive use of Grounded’s cosy upper floor, with a complimentary drink included in your ticket.

Spaces are limited so booking in advance is essential. If you have any questions, please get in touch and I’ll be happy to help. Hope you can join me!

Painting Places Watercolour Workshop

Saturday 18 October, 3-5pm

Grounded Café, Chippenham

Person painting with watercolour set on wooden table

Join me for a relaxed, creative afternoon of painting your happy place!

In this workshop, we’ll explore painting all sorts of buildings and everyday places that hold special memories or simply make you smile.

What you paint is completely up to you. You might choose to recreate your own home, a favourite place you’ve visited, or somewhere that holds a special memory. Or perhaps a colourful shopfront, your go-to local café, a street scene, a charming country cottage… anywhere that makes your heart happy!

I’ll take you through the basic techniques of watercolour painting, then guide you step by step, from sketching out your ideas to adding those little details that make your artwork truly yours. You’ll head home with your own painting, plus a booklet of tips and inspiration to keep you painting.

All materials (and plenty of encouragement) are provided and all levels are welcome, whether you’re an art enthusiast or have never picked up a paintbrush before. No experience needed, just a love of colour and creativity!
