Watercolour Workshops 2014 in Hampshire, UK






  Dedham Hall Demonstration
September 2014

I promised to release my watercolour workshop information on my blog and web site and here it is. These sessions are held in Hampshire, UK . The area is called "Jane Austen " country as the village where Jane lived is not too far away so if you are visiting its' a lovely idea to add a few days to tour places of interest. 

Lunch is included in the fee, and a materials list provided prior to each session.

Some of the following workshops are already fully booked but there are still places available for next year at my time of writing this blog post. So if a course catches your eye now is the time to get in touch with me on 

jeanhaines@hotmail.com

Please note no bookings will be taken from 5th- 13th  October  due to a vacation.
