Watercolour Workshop – July

Capture botanical beauty your way with painter Jenny ‘Wren’ from The Little Hollow Studio on this Watercolour Workshop for beginners in Nottingham. All materials will be provided for you to explore and play with watercolours to create, connect and most of all have fun! If you have never worked with watercolour or drawn before don’t worry, as this workshop is perfect for beginners. After a tour of the gardens, there’s a messy, magical adventure waiting for you. Using real seasonal foliage for references, handpicked from the Pippley garden by their team of expert gardeners, we will incorporate a variety of different activities as we stay curious and cultivate creativity with this wonderful medium. Let’s discover the beauty of watercolour together. At the end of the workshop, you will take home whatever you create and perhaps a budding new skill.
