Upcoming events include botanical watercolour workshops led by artists Jolene Olivier and Claudia Faber, offering both beginners and experienced artists an opportunity to explore expressive techniques in a serene vineyard setting.
Full-Day Workshop Experience at La Motte Ateljee:
Fine Details & Delicate Layers: Botanical Watercolour Workshop with Claudia Faber
This in-depth experience is designed for those wanting to delve deep into watercolour techniques, focusing on layering, blending and expressive mark-making to bring botanical subjects to life.
Throughout the day, you’ll receive expert guidance in refining your brushwork, experimenting with colour, and mastering composition to create dynamic, nature-inspired artworks.
This hands-on creative session includes a coffee & croissant welcome, a seasonal lunch with wine at The Bakery, and plenty of time to develop and complete a detailed botanical piece.
Each participant will receive a curated goodie bag, featuring:
- A mini ceramic palette from Claudia’s handmade Watercolour Kit Collection
- A postcard print
- An info sheet with recommended tools and techniques to continue your newfound skill at home
- All materials, tools, and guidance are provided – just bring your curiosity and creativity.
Perfect for both beginners and experienced artists looking to enhance their watercolour practice in a serene, inspiring setting. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a unique botanical artwork, a personalised take-home kit, and the inspiration to continue your practice.
