Who's Keen to Paint a Striking Barn Owl in Watercolour?
So long as you know which end of a paintbrush is which, this workshop is for you! Whether you're brand new to watercolour or have dabbled before, you're welcome here.
I'll provide all the materials and guide you step-by-step in creating this striking Barn Owl portrait — plus no drawing skills are needed. You'll pick up essential watercolour techniques plus a few playful tricks to make your owl truly shine.
Tea and coffee facilities are available, and I'll bring snacks to fuel your creativity.
Take a little time out for yourself - swoop in and book your spot now.
What you'll get
  • Expert guidance and tuition through the process of painting a dramatic Barn Owl portrait in watercolour.
  • You will be working from a photo reference, with painted examples. An outline will be pre-prepared so you can get paint faster (no drawing skills are required!).
  • You will have access to your own palette, a selection of brushes, premium paints and 100% cotton paper.
  • You'll have technique practice pages and a painting to take home!
Knowledge required
So long as you know which end of a brush is which, this class is fine for you! We welcome artists who have experience in other mediums but have never used watercolour before, people with a little watercolour experience hoping to gain some more knowledge, or more practiced artists who just want a creative outing with everything laid out for them.
What to bring
Your creative enthusiasm! You can bring your own brushes if you have them, but I have plenty to share if not. A water bottle to stay hydrated is handy for your own comfort.

female Women-owned

With a maker for a father and a mother whose pockets were perpetually stuffed with foraged seeds, it's only to be expected Polla would end up as a creative inspired by nature.
​
An award-winning artist, Polla has a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Western Australia, studied interior design and has also worked for many years as a graphic designer and commissioned artist. She is a member of NAVA (National Association of Visual Artists) and the prestigious Watercolour Society of WA.
Inspired by the beautiful bush surrounding her Chittering home studio, Polla loves to express her enthusiasm for Australian nature by painting representational watercolours depicting "life close up" - still life, animals, birds and flowers. She loves to share her techniques in achieving her brand of realism through fun and informative workshops that demystify watercolour and make them accessible to all levels of artists. You'll hopefully leave her class armed with plenty of knowledge to move forward and a painting you'd be proud to frame.
