Kaye Parmenter

I am an artist based in the heart of the Somerset Levels and have 18 years experience with my much loved medium, watercolour. I am self taught and a professional member of the Society of All Artists. I really enjoy busy days, juggling working in the studio, supplying galleries and exhibitions and also holding both my own workshops in Somerton, together with traveling further afield to art groups and clubs.
The most common comment I receive from my students, keen to develop their own watercolour techniques, is that “I would love to loosen up with my watercolours but, when I try, I end up with a mess”. I can help you with this. There seems at times to be a huge number of ways that watercolour pigment can be applied to paper and this can lead to confusion and frustration. During the week I hope to approach a variety of subjects with different methods, all with the aim of helping you relax and enjoy this lovely yet challenging medium. I will give lots of demonstrations, alternating and exploring techniques. I will be with you to give help and guidance.
