Elizabeth Hollman reviewed: Watercolour Techniques for all - 4 week online course Tuesday evenings via Zoom

"I recently attended one of Purnima’s water colour workshops. The venue was excellent having the benefit of great coffee shop! The session was very relaxed, friendly and informative. A lot of different techniques were covered during the class and by the end of the session we came away thinking we had had a very positive experience. I would certainly recommend anyone thinking about taking up water colour painting to give it a try. "

Art By Purnima responded:

"Thank-you for your review and experience at the workshop. You have made so much progress with watercolours and have grasped the techniques well. Look forward to seeing you at the next workshop."

"Learnt to mix colours using 3 paints, brush techniques and starting with light tones and then adding darker tones to develop contrast of the painting."

Art By Purnima responded:

"Thank-you for attending the watercolour workshop at Cheylesmore. You have made great progress with your new limited watercolour palette. Look forward to teaching you again soon. "

"It was very good attending this workshop in person- much more immediate with help available as and when required. I have learnt more about successful wet on wet techniques as well as colour mixing."

Art By Purnima responded:

"Thank you for attending the workshop at Cheylesmore, it was lovely to meet you in person, well done with the watercolour pumpkin, you have made a brilliant start and have understood the wet on wet method. I look forward to teaching you on zoom and also in a venue very soon."

"Purnima is an excellent teacher, creating a friendly and encouraging environment during the class. Her “paint along with me” style is very helpful - with a demonstration and then time to paint yourself. She gives lots of tips along the way and is happy to answer questions and give advice. "

Art By Purnima responded:

"Thank you for your lovely review, you have made an excellent start to your watercolour journey. Keep up the brilliant work."
