With artist John Somerscales

The unconventional work of the groundbreaking American artist and watercolourist Nita Engle - in her inspiring book 'How to make a watercolour paint itself' - suggests a welter of unconventional and unique techniques to create atmospheric and evocative landscapes. 

In this one-day workshop, artist John Somerscales will demonstrate and lead you through some of these, including the use of wax resist, clingfilm, spattering, salt crystals, stamping and much more.
