A stream with its ambitious water rushing between and around rocks challenges the artist to catch the exuberance and vitality. Explore brushwork and effective use of white paper when painting the translucency of waters that are always changing and always on the move. Delve into the study of light and shadow and the way it plays on the rock surfaces and planes. Discover how to use value, color, and texture to give solidarity to the rocks decorating the stream. Go with the flow creating landscapes that rock! Reference material provided. Introductory watercolor experience needed.

In addition to developing skills using color, value, shapes, and edges, students will feel comfortable using painting techniques to create texture and gain an understanding of light and shadow in a painting.
