Andrew Jenkin
Andrew is a very experienced tutor new to DAG. He will be demonstrating watercolour and his subject will be “Seascapes”.
Graham Thew (instead of Donalda O’Neill)
Graham Thew kindly stepped into the breach as Donalda was unable to run the workshop. Graham ran an inspiring day as he demonstrated 6 quick watercolour projects to encourage everyone to experiment more and to let the “paint talk”.
