Class Content: Have fun and learn how to loosen up your landscape paintings using watercolor techniques on gesso coated paper. The white acrylic gesso creates a slick surface which allows for a loose, painterly effect and lets the colors stay bright and true. We will explore using different materials to apply the watercolor and how the paint can be easily lifted off to create bold, white shapes. Because painting on a gessoed surface allows for faster results we should be able to complete 3 or 4 different landscapes.
Demos along with individual help will encourage everyone in their own artistic expression. Beginners as well as experienced artists are welcome.
