Art For Beginners Group One- No Experience Required

Starts Monday 13th April.

Due to a high level of interest there are now 2 groups Group One and Group Two.

Classes are at West Lancashire Yacht Club on the Marine Lake. We have use of their large lounge with excellent light overlooking the water.

For your first two classes materials are provided. After that you will need to buy your own sketch book and chosen art materials depending on your media preferences. 

Your Tutor is Nawal Gebreel

The beginners group.
Students will learn the fundamental of colour theory, colour mixing and techniques so
they will be able to apply them on their work.
They will learn about tone to create depth in their work; I will demonstrate how to create
translucent washes and texture.
After the introduction to watercolour, students will be asked to bring their own photo,
to use as reference for their painting.
At the end of the term everyone will be able to produce several complete paintings.

Nawal is an experienced teacher, having been a lecturer at Southport and Skelmersdale colleges and runs workshops and lesson for adults, children, those with “special needs” in museums, galleries and other private and public institutions.

If you would like coffee or tea there is an honesty box at the sailing club - please bring a pound for your drink.

The class is £15 and this can only be paid in cash or by cheque payable to Southport u3a - there is no card machine. Thank you.
