Koi Fish Watercolor Painting Class

We will explore the beauty of watercolor while create this translucent koi painting.  Students will learn to blend colors and create movement with their brush strokes.  Proper brush care will be discussed as well as how to use the brushes to create texture with them. We will discuss what colors to begin a watercolor with, and why complimentary colors are such an important part of a painting. We will have some basic colors to use and mixing our own colors will be encouraged.  A little color theory is always thrown into the lesson.  My teaching style is to give enough instruction to keep everyone on track while letting each person's individuality be expressed as well.
