Adult Drawing & Watercolour Course

6-Week Course for Beginners

Discover the foundations of drawing and watercolour in a relaxed, supportive studio environment at The Art School, Chester.

This 6-week course is perfect for complete beginners, improvers, or those returning to art who want to build confidence, learn essential techniques, and enjoy a creative escape each week. You’ll be guided step-by-step by a qualified art teacher, with demonstrations and one-to-one support throughout.

Across the course, you’ll explore both pencil drawing and watercolour painting, learning how to observe accurately, control tone, mix colours, and bring your ideas to life on paper. Each session is designed to be achievable, enjoyable and skill-building, helping you grow in confidence week by week.

You’ll begin with simple drawing exercises before moving into shading, still life studies, watercolour washes, layering, colour mixing and a final artwork that brings your new skills together.
