So, that's what that was all about. I had a trial run on a board, then onto the wall for my first mural for quite a while. I think my last one was Wayne Rooney on my son's bedroom wall 😁.

For my workshop on 10th June, we will explore various expressive watercolour techniques:
• Wet-on-Wet
• Dry Brush
• Lifting-Off Paint
We will also cover paper selection, brushes, composition, paint and colour mixing. We will start with some basic technique exercises which can then be utilised in a seascape painting using an image of Robin Hood's Bay in North Yorkshire as reference.
My intention is to provide an enjoyable experience and helping you lose to fear of experimenting.

Expressive Watercolour, Workshop One - Robin Hood's Bay – St Gabriel’s Church, Audley Street, Ashton-under-Lyne, Wed 10 Jun 2026 - Hosted by Mossley based Artist, Phil Craven, where we focus on capturing the emotion, atmosphere and energy of the scene rather than precise, photographic detail. Ea...
