Art: Basics of Watercolor (18+yrs) F23/WS24
PACE Center • 20000 Pikes Peak Avenue Parker, CO 80138 Organized by Parker Parks and RecreationAbout this event
Description
This is a four-week class on the basics of watercolor painting geared to support the person with little to no experience, but if you are somewhat experienced this class will serve you well too. We will learn the basic techniques of wet-on-wet painting, painting light to dark and painting wet on dry. The focus of the class is experimenting and learning basic techniques which the student can then use on finished paintings of their own choosing. Guided self-study is encouraged. A small portion of the class will be devoted to voluntary, gentle and supportive classroom critique. This is on a voluntary basis, but I feel this can be very helpful to building confidence and learning. This class is meant to encourage playful learning and self-study with support for the beginning to intermediate painters with a strong emphasis on techniques used in watercolor painting. A supply list will be emailed prior to class. Contact instructor Laura McElfresh for questions at laura_mcelfresh@yahoo.com.
