Wandering Watercolors
$125
Join other beginning and advanced students on outings to enjoy watercolor painting and build friendships with other artists. Learn to manipulate watercolor media and tonal drawing to recreate the appearance of nature with an awareness of forms and their surrounding elements. Our basis will be the study of perspective, composition, value and color. Class location will be discussed weekly.
Prerequisite: Watercolor Basics.
Required: Proof of registration. Required: 1 small tube each: cadmium yellow (light), cobalt blue, alizarin crimson, 1 paint palette (Russel says folding ones are ideal!), 1 round #10 watercolor brush; 1 inch wide flat brush, 1 drawing pencil #2H, 1 eraser, 1 light board or piece of cardboard or portable watercolor easel, a lidded jar of water, folding chair (optional); and two sheets of Arches watercolor paper, 140 lb. cold press, (approx. $80).
Note: Please purchase Arches, as the quality of watercolor paper is essential for handling the techniques you will be taught in class.
Please bring any colors you already have.
