[VIDEO] Learn to paint a loose watercolour Highland Cow with texture

My most popular class! Join me in this gift inspired class where I show you how to paint a loose watercolour highland cow full of texture and character, just like the ones I’ve created for wall art prints, gift accessories and greetings cards.

Highland Cows with their distinctive large horns and shaggy fur coat are a popular feature on my Jennifer Rose Gallery home and gift collections. They are always popular when they are featured on my wall art prints, cushions, gift accessories and greetings cards.

This is the perfect tutorial to help you create LOTS of texture and directional movement within your watercolour,  loosen up with your colour layering and simplify a complex subject.

So, come and join me in my studio at Jennifer Rose Gallery from the comfort of your own home where I will guide you through every step to paint a loose watercolour highland cow full of texture.
