Join Deemouth Artist, Emma Wilson, at the Greyhope Bay Centre as she guides you through the beginner techniques of watercolour painting with the sweeping views of Aberdeen's coast as your inspiration. All materials will be supplied. About the workshop In this workshop, tutor Emma Wilson will take participants through the basics of using watercolours to create beautiful abstract landscapes and seascapes, utilising the amazing views from the Greyhope Bay centre. The workshop will cover techniques such as how to control the paint and the water, how to add texture and movement, and how to use different brushes. We will also cover how to observe and record the surrounding environment on paper, how to frame it and work out the best composition using pencil. This workshop is perfect for beginners as we won’t be seeking to create paintings which show the view in exact detail, but instead creating paintings which capture the feeling of the landscape. During the workshop participants will create lots of sketches and studies before moving onto at least one final painting. No previous experience is required, this workshop is suitable for all levels, from those who have never painted before to those who would just like to paint the fabulous views from the centre with some guidance and advice. About the artist Emma Louise Wilson is a silversmith, jeweller and enameller from Aberdeen and graduate of Gray’s School of Art. Taking inspiration from the landscapes and seascapes around the North East, Emma creates fine silver and enamel jewellery as well as hand raised bowls in either fine silver or copper with enamel decoration at her workshop at Deemouth Artist Studios in Torry. Emma’s work begins in the landscape, taking photographs of the huge Scottish skies, the hills and the sea, paying attention to where the land meets the sky and where the light hits the sea. The photographs then inform the drawings and watercolour paintings she produces back in her studio, and these in turn are referenced when Emma begins working in the enamel and silver. She loves to use traditional techniques like hand-raising and enamelling in a contemporary way producing work which is beautiful and modern and something to be treasured.
