Fungi Art: Layered Watercolour & Ink
Discover the quiet beauty of mushrooms and lichens through layered watercolour and expressive ink sketching. In this beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll explore transparent watercolour washes to suggest soft caps, clustered stems, and dappled forest light. Then, add depth and definition using ink with nibs and fine-tipped brushes to highlight texture, gills, and subtle forest details.
Designed for nature lovers and those looking to explore new artistic techniques, this workshop requires no prior experience. You'll receive step-by-step guidance throughout, with space for personal exploration and one-on-one support. By the end of the session, you’ll walk away with a unique fungi-inspired artwork and a deeper appreciation for the inspiring forms found in nature.
Perfect for beginners seeking a meditative, nature-inspired creative experience!
