Color & Saturation: Watercoloring Still Lifes with Flowers
In this course, we will look at combining loose impressions of a grouping of flowers and leaves with more detailed elements. We will juxtapose these different focal points while experimenting with color combinations and variations of tonal intensity. We will also discuss how to paint stems through a glass vase and how to approach those abstract distortions.
We will begin our lesson with an introduction to applicable watercolor techniques and colors. For the majority of the lesson, we will be working off a still life, either a live arrangement of your choosing, or from a photograph provided by the instructor, which she will be demonstrating throughout the lesson. All levels are welcome!
Notes: Bring your own materials.
