Watercolour Workshop - Easy Mountain Landscape
30 January 2026 at 7.00pm - 9.00pm
Join Wendy in the studio to learn the Zig-Zag technique to make beautiful realistic mountains that can be applied to any landscape. Let’s experiment with colours and washes to create some atmospheric skies.
Price: Only $70.00 per student!
Mountain Landscape
The Zig-Zag technique - a simple yet powerful method for creating beautifully realistic mountain ranges in watercolour landscapes.
You’ll learn how to build depth, shape, and texture with confident strokes that can be used in any scene, from distant hills to dramatic peaks.
We’ll also experiment with colour mixing and gentle layered washes to create atmospheric skies that glow with light and mood. We’ll play with soft gradients, blending, and a touch of spontaneity to bring your landscape to life.
Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refine your skills, this session is all about discovering new techniques, building confidence, and having fun with colour. Join me for a step by step lesson!

Corporate Wellbeing Workshops
These lovely Volunteer Carers from Alfred Health took a little time out to enjoy a Beginners Watercolour Class here at Gallery47. We had such a fun, relaxed session, lots of laughs, lots of colour, and everyone went home with a beautiful painting (and a new creative spark!).

Having never painted with water colour before I was not sure what to expect but the teacher started with an explanation of how it works & we practised doing exercises. Then we actually did a painting under close guidance & with lots of help. Very happy with my first artwork but it’s absolutely far from perfect. Loved the experience & would recommend the class
