During this 3-week series, students will learn the basic rules, techniques and principles of watercolor, including painting from light to dark, preserving the white of the paper, and using glazing and washes to convey 3D objects. The goal of this class is to help you develop confidence in watercolor painting and give you the tools and skills to continue painting on your own.

Understanding how to apply watercolor fundamentals and methods can help create an approachable and enjoyable style of painting as you learn how to paint in an efficient way. Students will paint the subject matter displayed in the class picture (which will often be either a still-life or landscape) from beginning to end with hands-on guidance from our instructor.

This particular watercolor painting program will focus on a bowl of fruit. In understanding how to approach this particular painting you’ll learn transferable skills to create other still life watercolor paintings in the future.

Note for Returning Acrylic Painting Students:
If you have taken a watercolor program with us before, please note each program will focus on a different subject matter. We will refresh upon the basics you previously learned and modify the project or approach to further build upon your skills and experience.

All materials are included.
