Jane Davenport shares her love of watercolour and how she uses it to create beautiful, expressive art work and art journal pages that speak to the artist and viewer. You will learn how using ink and watercolours in a loose and seemingly care-free way can create sumptuous and truly unique artwork!
Joanne Sharpe has written many best selling books on Lettering and in this workshop she clearly explains her composition secrets and shows an easy path to falling in love with your own lettering! You will learn how your own handwriting can be gorgeous and just how much it can uplift and enhance the meaning of your artwork.

Who is it for?
While I classify this as an intermediate level workshop, it is just as suitable for beginners as my loyal Davenpeeps (an affection term of respect for people that love doing all my workshops!).
Who is it not suited for?
If you’re just getting started with your art, either the Draw Happy workshop or Supplies Me workshop ( link to bundle?) would be a great starting place. If you want to draw realistic figures from life, this workshop may not be for you, however it’s perfect if you want to draw expressive figures from your imagination!
How the Workshop is Delivered
I have created this class so you can take all the time you need and let the magic happen!
All sessions for the Self-guided study classes are up when you arrive. This means there’s no waiting for projects to be posted and you can take the course at whatever pace works for you.
You can revisit, rewatch, recharge and remind yourself of all the art supplies, all the drawing lessons, all the mixed media inspiration whenever you want.
You need never feel embarrassed about not ‘clicking’ with a new skill straightaway. It’s a terrible feeling when you feel left behind, or that you dont ‘get it’ and everyone else does in a learning situation! But you will NEVER feel that way in my classroom because you can pause and rewind, and ask questions.
Full instructions are on the site if this is your first online class experience. You are in safe hands!
What you Get
You’ll get the expertise of two celebrated teachers and bestselling authors who will broaden your mind and your art skills!
You’ll get instant access!
What you need for the workshop
Let me just emphasise that you don’t need all the art supplies in the universe to complete your assignments! You can use whatever art tools you have. You will learn new ways of using what you do have, and be able to pinpoint what you may like to add to your creative life in the future without expensive trial and error.
In this workshop we use watercolour, pens, a waterbrush and a journal. If you don’t have those yet, you can check out these ones from my store.
