Landscape Painting in Watercolour: Turner, Cotman, Seago and Beyond
This course explores watercolour as a contemplative and expressive medium for landscape painting. With a focus on light, atmosphere, and mood, students will learn to capture the essence of a place through tonal washes, spontaneous brushwork, and sensitive observation.
Practical sessions will be complemented by short talks on the history of watercolour, tracing its development through key figures in the English tradition — from Turner and Cotman to Seago and beyond. The aim is not only to build technical confidence but to cultivate a deeper attentiveness to the natural world and the watercolour medium.
Rather than enforcing a single way of working, the tutor will encourage curiosity, attentiveness, and personal interpretation — helping students to discover their own visual language within the discipline of watercolour.
