Discover how the delicate translucency and speed of watercolor is ideally suited to capturing light, shadows and form of still life arrangements. There will be an emphasis on using the watercolor medium including correct brushwork, water/pigment ratio and the application to various watercolor paper surfaces. Learn how to mix fresh and effective color combinations along with the ability to see value as color. Study how to capture an effective still life painting through careful interpretation of what one sees. Successful composition and correct application of drawing skills will be discussed. Course includes instructor demonstrations. Students will be encouraged to develop a personal style and painting aesthetic.
This course is open to all levels, however, some drawing and watercolor experience is helpful.
