Solar plate etching is a non toxic form of etching.

Sketching & painting in Watercolour
26 & 27 September 2020 - 9am - 4pm - Studio 1
Cost: $200 BDAS Members & $230 non members
Watercolour magic intrigues us all, yet it is so easy to become so obsessed with detail, that you often labour too long in striving for perfection.
Capturing the essence, is often more exciting, nailing the magic spirit of a place with the least number of strokes, not more.
Simplifying detail in drawing and painting techniques helps learning to see light and shapes that will significantly improve your sketching and painting skills. Malcolm’s fresh and enlightened approach, is designed to ensure a more experimental direction in learning to see forms and shapes including an understanding of depth in perspective. The course also embraces photographic apps to assist in exploring and analysing images to simplify detail to an appropriate level.
