Watercolor painting has a rich tradition dating back centuries, and is still enjoyed by today's artists for its unique color effects
and wide range of techniques.
Throughout this course, you'll try out traditional techniques including various washes and glazes. We will also focus on
textures and special effects and learn how to make these techniques part of your personal painting style. This course focuses on
how to use the white of your paper without the use of resists or masking. The course begins with a look at the materials and
how to make the most of them, and you'll explore watercolor's unique properties by creating a color grid. Some lessons will
wrap up with a look at prominent watercolor artists, how to shape your style and choose intriguing subjects, and how to
articulate your ideas into individual paintings and painting series.
This is a great course for the novice or the artist who would like to have a contemporary take on watercolor and get their brush
wet again.
Each lesson introduces theory and techniques hands-on, which you'll further apply in a complete painting. Accomplished
watercolor artist Suzanne M. Falk guides you and provides professional critique to help develop your work.
Objectives:
Students can expect to learn how to:
• Select appropriate materials for watercolor painting.
• Create a color grid and demonstrate watercolor's unique color properties.
• Mix colors, create an appropriate water: paint ratio, and load the brush.
• Get a better handle on Color Theory
• Establish control over the brush and a wide range of brush marks.
• Use drawing, blocking, and underpainting to prepare a watercolor painting.
• Apply paint using washes, glazes, textures, and other important techniques.
• Use historical and modern influences and artists studies to shape your personal style.
• Paint in a representational manner and choose engaging subject matter.
• Articulate your painting concepts in individual pieces and series.
• Focus on the use of personal items and symbolism to tell a story that is your own.
• Have fun!
