Learn to paint a floral subject on watercolour paper

with Anne-Kathrein Erban

There is magic in every beginning – here on Mallorca the new year is often greeted by the first blooms on the almond trees. They slowly emerge as the sunshine becomes stronger and the days get longer again until the trees are covered by a mass of these lovely, tender white and pinkish blooms. It is for this spectacular sight that some people come here specifically at this time of the year.
But when you pick them and put them into a vase they do not last, so why not try to preserve their beauty by putting them onto paper?
Perhaps this can also be a new beginning for you, delving into a new area of creativity? Come and join a very small group of similar minds, mindful people with an eye for the beauty of the small things around us.
