“Organic Watercolor Painting” with Julie Schroeder

Join Us for this Exciting Class with Minnesota Based Instructor, Julie Schroeder. Discover and energize your inner artist and loosen up with exciting new watercolor techniques.
This will be a FUN class with watercolor techniques. Using color, texture, layering, expressive mark making & splattering, we’ll be experimenting with different professional papers, handmade organic papers & masa papers.
In this workshop, our main project will be a lovely landscape created with Masa Paper on 140lb watercolor paper. We’ll be layering on beautiful rich color in a wet into wet beginning with a special technique combining the Masa Paper onto the watercolor paper. This creates a beautiful textured batik look!
We will also be doing some smaller pieces exploring a variety of brush techniques and using handmade papers for 3-D effects. Be prepared to uncover the amazing qualities of watercolor. We will be doing some experimenting with fresh watercolors as well!
Experienced painters as well as those who are new to watercolors will both enjoy this fun and exciting day of exploration of watercolor. This class is perfect for all levels of experience. Come & have some fun, pouring & splattering paint & prepare to be amazed at the outcome.

PAPERÂ Provided BRUSHES PALETTE:Â with paint in the wells already set up and dried MISC: PAINT: We may be experimenting with fresh paint so if you have a few tubes, you may bring them too. You don’t need to use the same colors as i will be if you have your own favorite colors, please bring those. It’s beneficial to have at least 2 of each primary color. 1) Quinacridone Rose NOTE:Â If you have any questions about the supplies or are just giving watercolor a try and don’t want to spend a lot on supplies, please call me at (651)352-5695, or email me at: brushcolour@yahoo.com. I can either bring a supply kit for you or recommend a more economical way to give it a try. If you know you will be doing watercolor for a long time, I recommend getting quality materials. They not only make painting a lot more fun, (less struggling), they usually last longer, so in the long-term, cost just about balances out with the cheaper materials. I recommend Daniel Smith paints sold at Wet Paint or online, or if it’s a specific color you need, If you let me know ahead of time, i can bring an extra tube. I will also have some extra paper for sale at $10 for a 30 inch by 22inch sheet, but please let me know 2 weeks prior to the workshop. If you have questions, please feel free to call! QUESTIONS? |
