You are invited to join a group of enthusiastic like-minded people to  study Watercolour painting in relaxed atmosphere of your own house. Guided by a professional artist Raya Brown you will receive step-by-step instructions and individually tailored tuition, inspired by Raya’s watercolour demonstrations and her own work during her live sessions.

Moreover, the structured feedback will be given on your class work and homework.
