Watercolour workshops with award winning artist
JACKIE DEVEREUX
S.G.F.A.
6th - 13th June 2010
A workshop on contemporary watercolour techniques and new approaches to encourage the use of bright bold transparent colours which at one time would not have been associated with watercolours. Above all this will be a creative experience using a variety of techniques and subject matter. Jackie’s teaching methods will encompass all levels of ability, the objective being for each individual to retain his or her own identity whilst striving to go on to another level of experience.
Jackie is greatly influenced by the graphic quality of Japanese art, and the light of her adopted country, France. Her first love is pure watercolour, but she is equally at home with pen and ink. She will quite often incorporate an element of calligraphic work into a collage with fine hand embossing, which she has pioneered
Jackie is a very enthusiastic teacher and gives her students great inspiration with her dynamic approach. Her demonstrations are stimulating and thought-provoking and will stir your creative juices.
There are plenty of fine artists but surprisingly few of them are able to convey their knowledge effectively. Jackie is one of those few. A week with Jackie will change the way you think about watercolour and open your eyes to a whole new way of painting with expert guidance at your own pace.
During your week at Mas Saurine with Jackie there are five days of tuition with one rest day for you to either work on your own or which you might like to use to visit a vineyard, a trip to the beach or a local museum.
The cost for a week is 950 Euros per person or 850 Euros for two artists sharing a room.
Non-painting partners are very welcome at 720 Euros for the week.
Included in the price are your meals and tuition and pick up from Perpignan airport or railway station. Flights and holiday insurance are not included.
To reserve your place or for further information please contact Carolynn.
