Description
Welcome To Solve Your Watercolor Troubles
In this class we will take on the most common watercolor troubles many have and solve them!
I asked my Skillshare watercolor followers to submit their art for this class. I will use them as examples for most of the lessons. I'm also taking some of my sub-par work and critiquing them as well. We will look at these examples and I'll make some suggestions on how we can improve them. Then I will give you an assignment that will help solve the issue(s). Some assignments will be practice reels where we used timed images to draw or paint
The topics will be broken down as follows;
Drawing simple subject - the number one issue most artists have - FACT
Drawing multiple subjects -adding a second object will help with scale and relationships
Drawing objects in perspective - this is a major drawing skill needed to create the illusion of depth on a two-dimensional surface
Values hierarchy - this skill will help you develop an understanding for strategically placing, or planning, values in a way that it enhances the depth of a scene
We will begin this course with drawing simple subjects. That's because it has a profound impact on your watercolor art. It's the foundation in which the painting is placed upon. A weak drawing equals a weak painting. Simple as that!
We will then take each topic and break it down one by one. It will be fun and educational so get in there and get started now!
Who Should Attend!
- Beginner and aspiring watercolor artists that need to develop a solid drawing foundation
