During this fun, creative art club, students will learn to paint landscapes, seascapes, cityscapes, and objects from nature. In spring, we will paint floral designs, trees, and spring scenes. In summer, we will paint the beach, seashells, boats, and palm trees. In the fall, we will paint fall themed items such as pumpkins, apples, and farm scenes. In the winter, we will paint snowscapes, winter scenes, pine trees, and warm cozy indoor scenes.

------------------------------------------
Students will learn about the basic techniques using watercolor paint. We will practice wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, dry brush, flat wash, gradated wash, and variegated wash. We will learn basic color theory as we mix paints.

Students will have plenty of time to talk to each other and to me during this club style class. I will give lots of encouraging and enthusiastic feedback. My teaching style is relaxed and I help students to develop their own artist style. 

This class is open for beginners or advanced students who may need encouragement. I encourage creativity all along the way. I will be painting along with students and showing techniques while we paint together.
