Inspired by the still life and flower images of the Colourists and their contemporaries, artist Tessa Asquith-Lamb will take you through the process of creating a small scale, still life watercolour. Working from beautiful flowers and objects you will create a balanced composition with lively drawn details, using pen and pencil over watercolour.

Tessa has led a range of workshops and is an experienced painter and etcher who also works in paper cutting.

All materials are provided.
