The class will start with a brief introduction to watercolor and then we will quickly dive into putting paint to the paper. We will go over some of the basic techniques in watercolor. Students will learn “wet on dry”, “wet on wet”, wash, gradient, and the basics of color mixing. Once the students have a good handle on the basic techniques we will start the class project. The class project is designed for the students to use all the skills they gained from the first part of the class to make their own unique painting. The final project will utilize the painters tape to learn how to use negative space within a watercolor painting.
