Try your hand at this beautiful art form as we work week-by-week on achieving the ethereal qualities of watercolor painting.
Start with the basics including color mixing, paint and brush techniques, and composition. Learn about correct applications, special techniques, and the uniqueness of watercolor painting. Students will work from close observation of still life displays or photos with teacher demonstrations at each class.
Everyone is encouraged to develop their own artistic style while getting accustomed to the techniques of the medium.
This class is designed for beginners, but all levels are welcome.
Tuition for this class includes a fee of $10 for basic supplies provided by CAW.
