David Coupe

Chesterfield, Derbyshire

David Coupe has been painting in watercolour for around twenty years, before that, oils were his medium of choice but because of the type of work he did as an electronic service engineer in the graphic arts industry and because of the time spent in hotels it was difficult painting in oils and so a small tin of watercolours paints was purchased. That was it, he was hooked on this unpredictable but wonderful medium. Watecolour painting is now his first love, and on taking early retirement more and more people started asking about watercolour painting lessons until David decided to form Coupe Watercolours, and now 2 hour lessons, Saturday watercolour workshops indoors, outdoor Saturday workshops (for the more advanced), painting holidays and life classes along with art sales are all part of the growth of the company. If you are interested in learning to paint in watercolour, lessons are given in the comfortable surrounding of my studio at home at a time convenient to yourselves between Mon and Thurs. Saturday one day courses throughout the year (on site if the weather permits). Watercolours and brushes can be hired for the day.
