Watercolour Class
with Amy Kelly-Miller
With all this time spent indoors isolated from your local community it’s import to engage in a hobby to fill your time with a sense of achievement.
Creative hobbies allow your brain to focus on the activity in hand and switch off from the stresses of daily life. This is great for your mental health and it will help you to relax, stay positive and learn something new.

Learning a new skill can be daunting to do on your own. This is why we have outlined a free, live online art course that covers a range of different topics for you to try out.
The classes will be streamed live but if you can’t make the streaming time then not to worry, they will also be uploaded so you can tune in and watch in your own time.
Amy will start the class with an introduction to the topic and little warm up to get your creative juices flowing. She will then guide you through the process while making her own piece of art live, this way you can watch and learn.
