Join us in the Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens for a relaxing and inspiring outdoor watercolour workshop designed for adults of all skill levels. Whether you're a seasoned artist or just beginning your creative journey, this hands-on session will guide you through the fundamentals of landscape painting in a beautiful natural setting.

Led by local illustrator and artist Lauren Mullinder, you'll learn how to build a landscape composition, mix colours inspired by nature, and use brush techniques to bring your scene to life. Surrounded by scenic views, you’ll have the chance to observe and paint directly from nature while receiving personalised guidance and feedback.

Whether you're a beginner or have some painting experience, you'll enjoy a supportive, low-pressure environment where you can create, learn, and connect with fellow art and nature lovers.

What’s Included:

All materials will be provided (paints, brushes, paper). If you would like to use your own materials or sketchbook, you are welcome to bring this with you.
Sketching boards and picnic rugs will be set-up for use. You are welcome to bring a camping/foldout chair and/or small easel with you if you would prefer.
Step-by-step instruction and individual support
