Get started with the fundamentals of watercolor painting, learning how to choose the right papers, paints, and brushes. We will study the color wheel, practice mixing colors, and learn about value. You will explore techniques in direct painting, wet-on-wet, dry brush, and washes. We will be painting still-lifes by the end of the class.
