Line and Watercolour Wash with John Harrison in the Yorkshire Dales

Description

We are delighted to be able to welcome John back to Broadrake after the disruption to indoor workshops with Covid.

A relaxed, interactive, informal day delving into the mysteries of line and wash in John's unique style. Broadrake, in the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park, has amazing views all around and no shortage of inspirational subject matter.

The day will give an insight into John's style with demonstrations and exercises. There may be outdoor sketching opportunities, subject to the weather, working from these and reference images to the final ink drawing and application of light watercolour washes to create a loose lively painting (or three), running from 11.00 am to 5.00 pm (Sunday, May 15th) and 10.00 am to 4.00 pm (Weds, Oct 19th) with a break for lunch. If the weather is unsuitable for outdoor sketching, then you will work from inspiring photos of the local area.

John is Yorkshire born and bred, proud of his home county which provides the inspiration for much of his work. He specialises in line and wash, a style that superbly captures the beauty and atmosphere of Yorkshire's landscape, towns and villages.

Cancellation and a full refund can be obtained up to 4 weeks before the course starts. Start dates may be amended on request.
