Mixed Media Workshop | Watercolour & Texture

Saturday 12 December 2026 | 1:30–4:00 pm
Heger en van den Berg | Voorheuvel 76 | Zeist

Discover how to combine the transparency of watercolour with the textures of mixed media in this inspiring watercolour and mixed media workshop.

You’ll learn the basics of watercolour, including how to mix colours, build up transparent layers and create atmospheric colour transitions. Then we’ll introduce a variety of mixed media techniques to add more texture, depth and character to your work.

We’ll experiment with different materials and create a quick image transfer, allowing you to transfer a photograph or image onto your paper with ease. No drawing experience is needed, making this workshop suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists.

With clear, step-by-step guidance, you’ll discover how watercolour, texture and mixed media complement one another. You’ll explore a range of materials and techniques and go home with a unique artwork and plenty of inspiration to continue experimenting at home.
