Intro to Watercolor, pt 2 (@ BSSS)

from $180.00

This course includes additional information about the nature of watercolor as a paint medium, as well as a further exploration of papers, brushes, and additional tools. We will continue to explore brushwork as the basis for brush marks, color passages, and washes. While we will expand on various wash techniques, we will place an extra emphasis on wet-into-wet applications in this session. We will also continue to explore and employ design concepts through the use of line, value, and color thumbnails and optional exercises.

This course (pt. 2) will have a focus on Wet-into-Wet (aka Wet-on-Wet) techniques. Beginning students will learn how to use basic watercolor tools, techniques, and design concepts to create their own paintings. Experienced painters will get a chance enrich their work with ever more challenging projects or experimental approaches. Lots of demos, handouts, and feedback will aid each student achieve their goals in the class.

We will create lots of studies, several small paintings but also one or two painting that are perhaps a bit larger and more finished.
