“Watercolor: Learning & Perfecting a Loose Style” with Alex Sharma
Imagine clear, transparent and luminous watercolors where your brush strokes make the shape and form of your subject without picky detail. Mastering a loose technique is the groundwork that will enable you to paint intuitively and creatively. Specific brush technique, transparent layering, juxtaposition of values and use of visual texture and rhythm to create your scene are the focus of this course. We will paint from life and from your reference photos. Each class starts with a demonstration specific to the learning for the day.
