Complete beginners and experienced painters are welcome at outdoor watercolour workshops in the glorious surroundings of Batsford Arboretum, near Moreton-in-Marsh.

Local artist Carl March is running the workshops at Batsford right through the summer and autumn.

It's a chance to have fun and learn a new skill, drawing and painting for pleasure.

Morning and afternoon sessions are available Monday to Saturday from 10am-1pm and 1pm-4pm.

The workshop costs £32 per person (£26 per person for annual pass holders) which includes three hours of tuition, all art materials necessary for the day and entrance fee to the Arboretum.

Places are limited so booking is essential - please call Carl on 07927 614604 or email carl.march@live.com  to book. For more information about Carl, please visit www.carlmarch.co.uk
