Watercolour in Bretany
Watercolour course in Golfe of Morbihan (56) with wednesday special Carnet de voyage from 29 june to 04 july 2025
Imminent departure to Bretany country
On the edge of the Gulf of Morbihan, just a few kilometres from l'Ile aux moines, Vannes, Billiers, Carnac or Quiberon, where the wild coast boasts steep rocks and where tides and seagulls punctuate the lives of the fishermen and inhabitants of Brittany, We'll be indulging in the pleasures of watercolour painting, taking in Brittany and its magnificent wilderness, the superb boats at low tide along the coast of Saint Gildas de Rhuys, La Roche Bernard and the charming village of Rochefort en Terre. In short, this watercolour course allows you to become one with this sublime and famous wild coastline for a few days...
Quite a programme! and nothing but pleasure...

Working with water
Discovering water, learning to manage it, letting it flow, with real wet-on-wet work.
Learn how to mix colours, get to know your palette and make the most of it to create luminous, transparent shades and tints.

Fluid and dynamic
An approach to light, fluid yet dynamic watercolours, shadows and light, how to capture contrasts, learning how to create a balanced composition, making a success of your watercolour with a good rough sketch…
These are just some of the parameters needed to produce a beautiful, transparent and harmonious watercolour.

Capture beauty
During this watercolour course in Provence, you’ll learn how to approach and capture the beauty of a landscape, to capture the emotion of a place, its smells and its colours.
This is what we will be learning throughout this course, which is designed to be friendly and welcoming, where everyone can express themselves at their own pace, at their own level, and with respect for everyone else.
