ABOUT
Colour shouldn't overwhelm you - it should work for you by setting the mood of your painting. In this workshop you'll learn how to limit your palette with intention, use colour theory to set a mood by selecting a colour harmony and learning how to unify it. No guesswork, no colour anxiety - just a toolkit you'll use every time you paint.
We'll learn:
- Colour harmonies and why they work
- How to limit and unify your palette to create a specific mood
- How using less colours make for stronger compositions
- Make colour decisions intentionally rather than by guesswork
All experience levels welcome and all materials required will be supplied.
ABOUT YOUR FACILITATOR
Fair warning: Mareli Basson will talk about colour for as long as you let her. Ask anyone who's seen her work - vibrant is the word that comes up most. But the thing she loves most isn't the result. It's the moment someone discovers what they can do with it.
Her watercolour workshops are an invitation into that discovery. Armed with a BA in Applied Design and years of collecting knowledge across mediums, she goes deep, and her students feel it. Several have already come back for more.
The medium is the doorway - accessible, playful, and just unpredictable enough to keep you honest. What's on the other side looks different for everyone. Some find a new practice. Some find colour itself. Some just find an afternoon that feels like breathing.
No experience necessary. Curiosity is strongly encouraged. Nerdy tangents included at no extra cost.
