Description

Class Experience

In this ongoing watercolor technique class, each meeting will have a new technique  introduced, and opportunity given to try it out and practice in class. Techniques may include testing pigments, wet on dry, wet on wet, ombré, bloom, flat wash, lifting, and layering. Students will also receive an outline before each class to trace on their own watercolor paper, then come to class to learn the steps to complete their own watercolor work. The teacher will model the techniques, as we gently work...

A day before class, an outline will be updated to the classroom to prepare before the start of class. Students can then print the outline, and trace it onto their watercolor paper, using a bright window in their home. They may also sketch their very own if they choose.
