Introduction to Watercolours - V&A Academy Online


  • V&A (online) Cromwell Road London SW7 2RL United Kingdom (map)

Discover the lively personality of watercolour.

Through a series of exercises with expert tutor Leo Crane each week, you’ll explore a different way to use this versatile medium, from luminous manuscript painting to precision illustration and spontaneous mark-making.

By the end of the course, you will have tried out a variety of techniques, creating a mini portfolio of sample pieces and a final project:

  • Learn from our world-class experts wherever, whenever: watch classes live or view the recording later in your own time.

  • Time to explore: 12 hours of live classroom sessions over six weeks.

  • Consolidate your learning: watch over 20 specially commissioned How To videos to support your course. Receive feedback from the class tutor on your work.

  • Deepen your understanding: weekly Spotlight Sessions with V&A Curators, art historians and practicing artists explore the background to the projects.

  • Learn at your own pace: lecture recordings and study materials are available for six weeks after the course ends, so you'll never miss a minute.

  • A list of readily available materials will be sent out in advance of the course. This course is suitable for beginners and is open to participants aged 18 plus. 

    £240
