Hello and welcome.. I am so excited to be able to share what I have learned and experience on my artistic journey with you! Today we are starting from the beginning with watercolor basics. My goal with this class is to reach those who are at a beginner level and help minimize some of the fears of trying a new material!
In this class I cover some basic techniques that will help you get started with watercolors. You will learn simple ways of creating shadows and highlight, adding textures and my tips on how to gain brush control so that you can make more precise lines.
In this class you will learn about:
- Supplies (even down to brand name) that will help you be successful and what to look for when you go to an art store.
- Different ways you can use one brush to make a variety of lines.
- Watercolor techniques that will help bring your first painting to life such as: wash techniques, dry brush, masking fluid, tape techniques, lifting, and layering.
