Autumn Leaves Watercolour Class
Join Chloe for a class where you will use watercolour paints to create Beautiful painting aimed at focussing on your wellbeing
Time & Location

Portchester Community Centre, Westlands Grove, Portchester, Fareham PO16 9AD, UK
About the event
This Class will run for 2 hours from 10-12 during which time we will be using templates of leaves to draw around and layer on an A3 sheet of watercolour paper. We will create a Beautiful Autumnal Painting with the colours of your choice, layering washes as we go and drying in-between. This will be a very therapeutic class allowing your creativity to flow as you blend and mix colours to create your final piece.
Working with a limited palette can be surprisingly rewarding as well as calming, it means you don’t need to make any more ley decisions once you have selected your colour pairing. You can choose two harmonious colours such as yellow and blue or complementary colours (opposite sides of the colour wheel) reds and oranges will give a more vibrant hot painting.
The process of methodically building up the layer of paint, once you have established a rhythm, can be exciting and surprising.
Be patient between stages as the paper must be dry before you move on.
I will have pre-cut templates of leaves I collected in Staunton Country Park, the rest is up to you, layer and place these templates, draw around them and leave negative space for dramatic effects.
What you need: All materials needed to get you started are included, however, if you do have your own paints and brushes you can bring these to use in class. This includes aprons if you have one you wish to use in class.
Tutor: Chloe Philpott
Chloe is a freelance artist and tutor living in Portchester, Hampshire. She has a background in Graphite Pencil Portraits and Watercolour. She has a passion for creating atmosphere and emotion in her work. Chloe has just started teaching various art classes at both Portchester and Titchfield Community Centres in Fareham. Including Smaller Crafty sessions for the 3-8 age groups with Chloe's Crafty Kids which runs in school half terms.
Chloe really believes that all mediums in art have immense therapeutic and relaxing qualities, and should always be fun, enjoyable and supportive. The art community as a whole is a very tight-nit community which she has found since she started streaming live on Twitch in 2021. Chloe is all about enabling individuals to be creative without any judgement from others.
*all levels of artists are welcome, please be aware that even though we strive to complete the painting in one session this may not be the case for everyone, if this is the case then advice can be given after class via emails/facebook to help you complete the piece at home.
