Summary

Join Nicki Saunders on this wonderful opportunity to paint around Buxton

in Watercolour.

Holiday Details

We will get out each day on location and gather subject material using

photos and sketches which can be pencil/pen or small watercolour studies

and then we will return to the studio to develop these paintings.


We will sketch on location around Buxton and subjects will include the

Pavilion Gardens, The Opera House, the Crescent and the main high street

in Buxton, all of which are within walking distance of the hotel and each

other.


Subjects will include the historic buildings of Buxton and gardens with

trees, bushes, water and reflections.


About the Tutor

Nicki's enthusiasm for painting is reflected in her tuition and she will surely

inspire you in your paintings. She will give you plenty of guidance and

encouragement in her process which will include plenty of one-to-one

tuition.


She will start the day getting everyone sketching using either watercolour,

pencil or inks to capture the essence of a scene which will include key

compositional requirements including aerial perspective and linear

perspective.


Once back in the studio she will work on a project on a Step-by-Step basis

where can paint your scene using the techniques that she is applying to

her painting or you can do your own thing totally. Either way she will give

you plenty of one-to-one tuition.
