Watercolour Techniques for All - 4 week Online Course Tuesday Evenings Via Zoom

I have found my watercolour course to be a very good opportunity to improve my wet in wet techniques. The course was in a greater depth than my previous one had been. Purnima is a very patient teacher.

Purnima is a really good teacher, explaining techniques clearly step by step and providing plenty of encouragement. I look forward to the Zoom sessions, which provide some calm enjoyment after an often hectic day and feel I am learning and progressing with her help.

I would rate my experience as excellent. The sessions are always interesting and I have learnt so much. Everyone is welcomed regardless of if you are a beginner or someone who just wants to improve. The sessions are friendly and so much fun. I would recommend these sessions to everyone.

I have enjoyed the variety of subjects we have covered thoughout the course. Initially I was not sure about learning on line but surprised myself about how much one could get through in a session. It has been an enjoyable experience, I have continued to learned a lot and feel I have improved my skills. I would encourage anyone interested in learning to paint in water colour to give it a go!

The class was excellent with Purnima giving attention to any issues that I might experience with the painting - she was very attentive and considerate. After the course she advised me of different online courses that I could do in the future.

I rated the session excellent. You explained and demonstrated the watercolour techniques involved for a landscape it was broken down so that it was easy to complete and understand. At the end of the session I felt confident enough to try another.

I am a complete beginner to water colour and have enjoyed learning how to handle and use the paint. It’s been very therapeutic and relaxing. Purnima is really encouraging, patient and positive. I have signed up for another course to keep on learning!

Fantastic! Purnima is thorough, patient and fun in her approach to teaching. I’ve learnt lots and will be signing up for more classes.

An excellent class with an experienced tutor.
Not only have I learnt a great deal from joining the class, I have also found the class socially rewarding and always leave with a smile!

Great class! Purnima is a lovely person and great teacher, very patient and explains everything thoroughly. Highly recommended!

Purnima is so enthusiastic about watercolour painting that it is impossible not to enjoy her classes. Her teaching style is clear and she chooses interesting projects every week. Individual feedback on our work is positive and encouraging.

I joined Purnima’ S class last year. I love the informal style and the relaxed persona of Purnima. We are not pressured into completing the subject that we are performing in any session.We receive constructive criticism so that we can improve our techniques. I enjoy the sessions as the other pupils are friendly and supportive. I hadn’t painted in Watercolours before Purnima classes but I think that with her encouragement I am progressing.

I have only just started watercolour classes but I really enjoy them. The video tutorials are easy to follow. Purnima is fun and very positive. She really enjoys the classes as much as the participants. She allows the class to grow at a pace suited to them.

Such a fantastic and fun class. I have learnt so much and looking forward to continuing.

I am enjoying these classes and feel that I have made improvements. The sessions are well structured and Purnima is an excellent teacher. All the information needed is sent to you beforehand and then feedback and help given by Purnima (via e mail) after the sessions. The group are very friendly and welcoming.
I would recommend these sessions to beginners and more experienced painters.

I had tried watercolour painting on and off for ages but wasn't happy with the results. Purnima's approach to soft 'impressionistic' floral painting helped me to understand the use of a minimal palate and helped me to develop the skill of 'touching in paint' into washes to create soft effects. The Zoom classes are well paced and each step is explained by demonstration. Participants are then given enough time to complete the exercise. Participants, as a group, are friendly and encouraging.

Excellent watercolour course with clear step by step tutorials and demonstrations. Purnima is a friendly, encouraging and very engaging tutor and her style of teaching makes watercolours very accessible with the course being equally suited to both beginners and improvers.

Purnima has given me lots of confidence to to try and tackle watercolour projects on my own. She demonstrates techniques and gives you positive feedback, helping you to become self critical and make progress in your painting. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve their watercolour skills whether you are a beginner or more experienced.

Purnima’s lessons are very enjoyable and provide an excellent way of improving your watercolour skills in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.As one of the older members of the group who has dabbled with watercolours for a considerable number of years I find Purnima’s classes provide a refreshing and appealing way ito continue learning and gain inspiration and have fun at the same time.

It is a joy to learn with Purnima. I am understanding water colour painting so much better now. Purnima is very patient, helpful and encouraging. I’m so glad I joined this class. Thank you.

I enjoy Purnima’s step by step classes, I’ve learned a wide range of techniques. Purnima is a friendly and encouraging teacher.

Purnima's classes are enjoyable and relaxing, especially after working. In the few weeks that I have attended these classes I have learnt so much and I find it most rewarding. Her teaching is excellent.

Highly recommend Purnima’s lovely watercolour classes.
I feel I have learnt such a lot in a short space of time; every session is so friendly, informative, relaxed and fun, and with clear and practical onscreen tuition and instant feedback, Purnima is so positive and encouraging to us all.
As a newcomer I feel I’m making good progress and I am proud of my work so far. This is a really great learning experience. The first time I’ve done an online course and everyone is so friendly who attends. Will definitely continue:)
Thank you x

I have been a student with Purnima for about two years. I find the course very comprehensive, we are taught several different techniques of how to use water colour as well as theory on how best to use our paints and produce a range of colours. I enjoy the classes very much, Purnima is a very good tutor and I have learnt a great deal over the last couple of years and look forward to learning even more in the future.

An excellent course suitable for both beginners and those with more experience. Purnima explains everything in a clear and concise way. You will learn all the different techniques of watercolour painting. The people who attend this class are very friendly and you will be made very welcome. If you are new to watercolour, this is the course for you.

Purnima is a Brilliant teacher. I have never been very good at watercolours, but Purnima teaches in a way that is clear and encouraging. Worthwhile and engaging.

I thoroughly enjoy Purnima’s courses. There is so much to learn about watercolour and you can never get bored. Purnima is an excellent teacher and I feel I’m making progress. The courses are very confidence making.

Highly recommend this course with Purnima, it was my first time doing a watercolour course on zoom and it was amazing. Clear video tutorial with step by step live demonstrations made it achievable, interactive and fun. I’m really proud of my work so far in my watercolour sketchbook and look forward to carrying on. Would recommend to anyone wanting to try something new! Thank you
