Modern Watercolour with Extras.
​
For this demonstration I will be using Watercolour with Mixed Media.
In the demonstration I will show how to create a landscape with Watercolours, Ink, Oil Pastels and Collage.
I will bring along some completed works and several works in progress to show how these materials work together to create a painting with interesting textures, light and glowing colour.
Watercolour is a very versatile medium that can be used with a variety of different materials to create interesting subject matter. It can be used on quality watercolour paper as well as canvas which is a different way to present your work, which is something I enjoy creating.
The Parramatta Art Society offers regular demonstrations by local artists in a range of subjects and media. 

Unless indicated demonstrations are held in the Society's Studio at 6 / 4 - 14, Hunter Street, Parramatta,
​on the third Saturday of the month from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm

The price to attend the demo is $ 10 and includes a light afternoon tea​
