Learn acrylic painting techniques including colour mixing and blending as you create your own colourful puffin. All abilities welcome.

Come and Puffin’ Along with me at Waters’ Edge for a proper morning of acrylic painting.

This workshop is all about colour, blending and building up a painting in layers. I’ll guide you through the techniques I use to create the colourful feathers, soft transitions and details that bring the puffin to life.

You’ll work through the painting step by step, learning how to mix and blend your colours, create depth and texture, and bring everything together into a finished piece.

And while I’ll guide you through the techniques, your painting doesn’t have to be an exact copy of mine. There’s plenty of room to add your own colours, details and personality.

It’s all done in a friendly, easy-going and welcoming atmosphere. There’s no pressure to get everything “right” and no need to worry about being the best painter in the room — just come along, learn some new techniques and enjoy the process.

No previous painting experience is needed. I’ll explain everything clearly and be on hand throughout the session to help you get the most from your painting.
