What you can expect

We will meet on the lakeshore, opposite the entrance to the Villa Olmo gardens;
After we've got to know each other, I'll hand out the materials everyone needs to get started:

  • Support board with watercolour paper
  • pencil
  • watercolour pencil
  • Ink pen
  • Watercolour brush
    We will observe the view of Lake Como, and I will give you some tips on how to effectively lay out your pencil work; after revisiting it with the ink pen, I will show you how to use watercolour pencils, how to create and layer colours, and how to produce unexpected shading effects; finally, using watercolour brushes with a water reservoir, I will guide you in transforming your drawing into a beautiful watercolour painting. Together, we will explore how to add emphasis to your work or make it more subtle. One thing is certain: everyone will be delighted to create a sketch that is full of character, distinctive, and unique!
    You don't need to know how to draw or paint – just let me guide you!
