Do you want to take your art up a notch this year or to express yourself through beautiful watercolours, but are not sure where to start. Or do you want to improve your skills and gain experience, but don’t have the time to experiment.

These workshops will help you get to where you want to be. They will bring my books to life and go into so much more detail than any YouTube film. Please come and share the processes, techniques and tips that have taken me 20 years to learn and perfect.

In the autumn of 2026 I am running a series of workshops in Knowl Hill, near Twyford, Berkshire, at a stunning venue – Micklems Farm. These are special days where you can concentrate on improving your skills and gain a huge amount of confidence in a concentrated time. Unlike most other workshops all materials are included in the price, unless otherwise stated.  If you want to print a list of workshops, you can do so here: 2026 workshops programme.

If you need help with accommodation here is a list of some local options. Accommodation list.

• Learn a lot in a concentrated period of time.
• All materials are supplied, so you just have to turn up.
• It’s a gorgeous location, in beautiful gardens.
• I am an award winning artist and published author, but I have been in your shoes – wanting to have a creative outlet and not being sure how to start.

Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you need help choosing the perfect workshop for you. All workshops start at 10am and finish 4/4.30pm depending on how the group is getting on. Please read all terms and conditions before booking.
