Working with watercolors is like a walk through history on paper. This introductory class focuses on learning solid basic brush techniques for producing clean, crisp colors while developing sensitivity in the hand. This is Not a "copy the teacher - everyone paints the same image" format. The veteran instructor covers the history and characteristics of transparent paint and best practices with color mixing and painting techniques. Students will have created a collection of finished works of art in watercolor and will receive a certificate of completion at the end of this class. Ideal for those interested in painting for fine art or book, advertising or design illustration.

Please Note: This is not a 'copy the teacher - everyone paints the same image' format.

The Wednesday 3:30 PM in-studio class is an after-school kids class.
