- Overview

This online course is designed to deepen your understanding of colour and composition, helping you create more dynamic and expressive watercolour paintings. Through a series of structured, tutor-led sessions, you will explore colour relationships, mixing techniques, and the principles of effective composition.
Learners will develop practical skills in creating harmonious palettes, controlling tone and contrast, and arranging elements to achieve balance and visual impact. The course encourages both technical refinement and creative experimentation within a supportive virtual learning environment.
Ideal for adults with some prior experience, this course will equip you with the confidence and knowledge to bring greater depth, cohesion, and vitality to your watercolour work. - Course level and content
