Intermediate Watercolour Course: Expressive Landscape Sketchbooks

Learn to see and interpret the landscape through tone, texture, movement, and atmosphere, developing your own sketchbook as a creative companion and expressive space. Ideal for intermediate-level artists looking to deepen their expressive watercolour practice.
