A Beatrix Potter Watercolours Workshop

To celebrate the 150th anniversary of Beatrix Potter’s birth, I ran a Beatrix Potter-themed workshop at Forty Hall on Sunday 19th June 2016.

Six participants joined the workshop to explore the work of Beatrix Potter and create their own characters, inspired by the famous stories.  Using watercolours, we looked at bringing life-like animal studies to life, using photographic reference material.

A really lovely little workshop – here’s a few photographs of the work produced.
