Watercolour Courses at Windrush Gallery

Day Courses: £80, including buffet lunch, tea & home-made cake
Residential courses: various prices, depending on B&B requirements; day rates also available

Our One-Day Courses are designed to assist students who are familiar with painting in watercolour, but would like to improve their techniques and add 'atmosphere' to their work. All abilities are most welcome, whether you paint regularly or have not picked up a brush for years.

Windrush is the ideal location for watercolour courses, surrounded by unspoilt Cotswold countryside and a short walk from the picturesque River Windrush. The Georgian house, former home of James Fletcher-Watson, R.I., R.B.A., has a large studio space, an elegant dining room for lunch and refreshments, and extensive gardens.

A welcome coffee is served from 9.45am and the class begins with a demonstration in the studio Gallery, usually followed by sketching and/or painting out of doors in the garden or the village. A delicious home-made buffet lunch is served in the dining room, and afterwards course members will complete their own location or studio pictures. Small classes (maximum 10) allow the tutor to give guidance to each course member. The day concludes with tea and a summing-up.
