What people have to say about their local art groups....

I realy wanted to paint in watercolours but there were just too many people, the teacher never got around to me and we were left to our own devices but I didn't know what to do as I have never painted before. But where can I get more individual attention without paying too much ? Try Coupe watercolours, for watercolour courses.

Painting Courses

I would love to take a holiday that involves my hobby and is different....

A painting holiday is an holiday with a difference, it is relaxing informative, and great fun and mixing with people with the same interest, so now watercolour holidays form a large part of the tuition time.

You will not be thrown in at the deep end....

We will be starting from the very basics and will build up from there to your very first masterpiece. Taking your time and enjoying it is what we look for at Coupe Watercolours.

I started the company Coupe Watercolours in the early part of 2003 after teaching watercolours on a small scale for a couple of years. I felt there was a market in watercolour tuition after talking to students who had been attending colleges etc and got tired of waiting for assistance from the tutor who had 19 other people to get around in a short space of time. 

The first decision I made was to limit the number per class to seven and put the emphasis on personal instruction and push the basics of painting watercolours instead of the ' ok get on with a painting' attitude. I am now happy to say that Coupe Watercolours now has a good student base of all abilities and I believe that Watercolours are for everyone. Watercolour courses should be fun to take part in.

More and more people are taking to painting in watercolours and now the watercolour holidays take up much of our time.
