In this course, you'll learn a variety of techniques to paint with watercolor in order to create different effects. In the beginning prep section, you'll practice the different subtle blends, fine lines, and the mottled texture you'll need to create this beautiful seashell image. Then I'll walk you through making the painting, start-to-finish, step-by-step. It is meant for the complete novice equipped with basic art materials. It is also meant to be a concise, efficient class that offers lots of great information in a small amount of time.
You will be carefully supported and guided through the entire process, from discussing which materials you will need, to how to hold your brush, how much color or water to apply and how to manipulate it on paper, onto avoiding common missteps that may lead to frustration. When we are finished, you will walk away with a new set of skills you can use in many watercolor paintings, as well as your own beautiful rendition of the seashell painting we'll make in this class.
