Gerrards Cross Summer School - Watercolour Dragon
Join Sharon to paint a cute dragon in watercolour. We will draw him out using Tracedown to make it easier, then we will cover him in washes of blue. Once dry, we will use the glazing technique to create shape, form and depth. This is a good way to keep your paint clean and bright
Open House

Tea, coffee and cake will be available from 10.30 to 16.30 both days.
