This class is all about Autumn in Watercolour. There are so many beautiful things to paint in Autumn, I'm always inspired to get out my paints and I hope you will be too! As always, I'll start by taking you through my supplies. We'll then look at painting all of the following:

A leaf

A pinecone

Some mushrooms (including a beautiful red toadstool and two wild mushrooms)

A pumpkin

Some acorns

And a branch of leaves and some berries

I take you through every step of my process from the initial sketches, with clear outlines for you to follow, to the palettes we need and then guide you through the painting step by step with tips and guidance along the way. My videos are in real time so you can paint right along with me.

This class is ideal for beginners or anyone more experienced who wants to paint these beautiful Autumn pieces. You'll just need your watercolour paints - ideally a yellow, red, blue and brown as a minimum (no requirements here on what type), some watercolour paper, a couple of different sized round brushes, water and a paper towel.

So what are you waiting for! Grab your supplies, and lets get started :)
