Intermediate Watercolor
In-Person: Adult | This program is completed
8 Mondays, 7-9:30pm
With an eye towards watercolor’s unique qualities of fluidity and transparency, students learn to get comfortable with the watercolor process. Exploring subject matter of your own choosing along with specific assignments from the instructor, you’ll learn concepts and strategies that allow you to paint with clarity and spontaneity. Color, light, atmosphere, and figure/ground relationships will also be addressed. Through individual mentoring and critiques you will strengthen your skills and deepen your understanding of color. Students will be encouraged to complete additional work at home. References to contemporary and traditional watercolor included.
