수채화 크리스마스/홀리데이 카드 플렉스 수업 Part:4

(This is a Flex class, so there are no live meetings) 

Join me each week as we usher in the holiday season by creating fun, festive watercolor cards. During class you will receive step by step instructions for how to create each piece, as well as how to address any mistakes that may occur. Learn different ways to use just a few brushes, as well as how to achieve greater control over your watercolor paints. We will also cover basic, foundational watercolor techniques such as such as wet on wet, wet on dry, and dry on dry, as well as how to create shiny, sparkling surfaces both with and without using glitter. This class is great for beginners as well as more experienced artists who simply want to have some holiday fun. Students are free to post a picture of their painting in class (whether it is finished or not) where they can ask for help, mention something new they learned, or simply to show off their masterpiece. Any class comments on such posts should always be encouraging, and designed to help the other student, not tear them down.

When asked for help I will respond with a message, or when necessary, I will post a short video with more detailed instructions. 

This class is 4 weeks long and each week I will post a new video that’s around 40 minutes to 1 hour. (Any additional videos which I may post outside of the weekly one will vary in length.)

Each lesson will be one complete painting, and we will fully cover whatever techniques are necessary whether we have learned them before or not. 

Week 1: Christmas Candle 🕯 
Week 2: Santa’s Sleigh🛷 
Week 3: Bell Ornament 🔔 
Week 4: Happy Snowman☃️


I will be using Arches 100% cotton, 140lb cold pressed watercolor paper cut into 4”x9” strips. While you don’t need this specific brand I would recommend using paper that has the same qualities since cheap or non watercolor paper can cause problems and lead to frustration. Strathmore is a fairly decent alternative brand that’s fairly cheap, but any cotton watercolor paper will do.
