Yolly will begin by explaining a bit about how pigments are made from plants and showing us one which can be made at home. Katie will then take you through a series of playful painting exercises to help you create your own beautiful floral compositions using a set of natural pigments.

Beginners and children are welcome - under 8's must be accompanied by an adult.

This class offers a lovely opportunity to start the summer in a creative way and connect with nature through painting.

All materials and some light refreshments are provided.

About the teachers...

Yolly is a wonderful neighbourhood florist who specialises in locally sourced and grown flowers.

Katie Rose Johnston teaches a regular contemporary watercolour programme in London and online. Her classes offer a playful approach to watercolour and aim to build confidence and reduce stress.

Praise for previous classes:

“I love, love, love Katie’s watercolour workshops. They are pure escapism and I’m learning new skills too. I’d thoroughly recommend these classes to anyone.”

‘I think one of the best things about doing this class, rather than trying to follow tutorials online, is that it gave me a better insight into how others paint, and re-assured me that things I was struggling with were normal’

    • I had my car ransacked on Wednesday night, I assumed I’d left it unlocked. It was unlocked again this morning though and I definitely locked it last night.   The car was outside my front door and the keys near the door inside so I assume this is a relay theft  issue with someone using a remote key reader. I would advise keeping keys away from the front door. I have reported to police. 
    • They plan to close the Mount Pleasant Office, absolute and utter madnesss
    • We are sadly saddled with the three stooges till July 2029 because they have such a far reaching majority, that is the problem when you give a party that level of support.  The ship was being turned around by the last Administration and given all their faults, errors, misdemeanours its not surprising that that got and probably deservedly so out of Office.  But if what has just happened over the past 100+ days since the new Administration took power, we are in for a very bumpy ride and peoples lives will ALL be affected. They say they champion the poor, well all they've done so far by taking away the winter fuel allowance (not eligible for it) and increasing employers national insurance, as sure as eggs is eggs, prices will increase and that hits everyone in the pocket, including the poorest in society. You can only shake the money tree so often, after which time it's Empty. What that means is the cost of providing benefits increases, where does the money then come from.  To then take on the farmers who feed part of the economy is utter madness, because if they blockade food supplies then people will go hungry, not necessarily starve. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you.  Their is enough written about the three stooges, Starmer, Reeves and Rayner, I have no idea if they are supposed "communists", but what I have seen is that free speech is being eroded, that can never be good for a democracy, where people are scared to speak out.  How does all this change, the people will eventually have had enough and rise up against the Govt. It has to happen eventually. Even is Starmer went you are left with Reeves and Rayner. Personally O don't trust either, it will be more of "do as I say, not as I do".  
    • Thanks for the invite, although most people will be at work or at school. It's a Monday morning...
