Adults & Teens 13 and over – Minimum 2, maximum 8 Prerequisite: Some basic previous watercolor experience, such as a beginning watercolor class is preferred but not required. This class is good stepping-stone to follow a beginning watercolor class after basic watercolor techniques have been learned (See my Beginning Watercolor class). Or, if you have done watercolor before but it has been a while and you are a little rusty it is a good refresher class. If you are experienced but want to also learn to paint in a looser quicker style this class is for you. Finally, if already know how to paint with watercolor but just want to get together with others and paint this class could also be fun and you may learn some new techniques. For each class, we will complete a small watercolor landscape from start to finish. There will be different techniques used in each class. The total “painting time” will be less than the 2-1/2 hour class to allow for discussion and demonstrations. Some possible examples will be a cloudy landscape, a rainy-day landscape, rolling country hills, a simple beach scene, misty mountains, etc. Reference image to be decided on the day of the class. Input from the students signed up is encouraged. The skills learned in this class will also easily translate to plein air style painting. Each class will have a different landscape subject so you can sign up for multiple classes if you wish. Bring to class: You may bring your own supplies if you wish, but paint, brushes and a paper will be included as part of the class.
