Watercolor Painting…Make a Splash

Explore the luminous and fluid watercolor medium and experience how the transparency of the overlays produce subtle variations of color and tone. These six classes are open to all skill levels and will include discussions on how to observe a subject followed by instruction on techniques and demonstrations to guide you from drawing to painting. The classes will encourage students to experiment and work spontaneously with the watercolor painting process. Classes will end with critiques allowing for contemplation and growth. Basic materials will be provided but those who have supplies are encouraged to bring their own.
