Artist Watercolour Workshop

Date: 11th Jul 2016 @ 10:18am

Last Thursday, we had a visit from an artist called Hugh Templeton. At the start, he told us about his website hughtempleton.co.uk

First we drew the line of the canal. Then we drew the bottom of the boat. Once we had done that we drew the top of the boat, the windows and door. For the colour of the sky we used sirilian blue. To make clouds, we ripped tissue paper and made a snowball and tapped the sky.

For the forest, we tapped on a dark green. It smudged to make it look like in the distance. Then we coloured the bottom of the boat in dark brown. Once we had done that, we stroked brown on the bottom of the boat to make it look like a reflection.

Then we got the sirilian blue and coloured in the top of the boat. For the water, we used a really dark blue.

We really enjoyed it.
