WATERCOLOURS WEEK 1

Check out what you will need for first week's class

Term1 2019

Welcome to my watercolour classes!

As the classes are about to start, I thought I would remind you about what to bring with you and the venue.

Classroom:
The classes are held at Kenmore State School (the one next to the roundabout and opposite Kenmore Village). The room for art is the Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) room, which is located to the right of the school entrance and on the ground floor. The main entrance of the school is on Moggill Road and has sandstone pillars.

Parking:

There are lots of car parking spots in the area.  However there are 2 carparks within the school ground you can use, both accessed from Moggill Road.  The easiest carpark for art is through Gate 2 at the far end of the school, next to the shops. This is the most convenient to our classroom.  On the day of the class, I will leave a couple of signs to direct you to the OSHC room (our art room).

See you this week.  Magda

A good quality paper

At the begining of each term, I like to remind my students of an importance of getting a good quality watercolour paper.  Paper, like brushes, is the foundation to successful watercolour painting. Watercolour paper is specially made for use with watercolours. The paper is sized which prevents water from soaking into the paper. Poor quality papers will absorb water rapidly and buckle.

Where do I get my materials from?

All of the required items can be obtained from an art shop such as 

Eckersley's, RiotArt, Art Shed, Oxlades.

But don’t worry, in case you are unable to  obtain it, I will have a starter watercolour kit NEW available to purchase in the class. 

Also NEW this year, I have Arches watercolour paper for you to purchase by sheet in the class. Different size sheets are available.
