Service Description

While I am a professional artist, I have studied with some of the very best watercolour artists/instructors from Canada, the US and Italy - Harold Allanson, Stephen Quiller, John Salminen, Carla O'Connor, Leslie Redhead and Marco Klee Fallani and they don't get any better than this fabulous group! I'll share some tricks I've learned along the way, as well as teach you about color theory/mixing, transparency, building compositions, the balance between transparency & opacity, how to paint light and atmosphere and create good compositions as well as really gaining confidence in this medium. Class handouts , demonstrations and supplies are provided. Students who have taken the Watercolor For Beginners Course at Island Girl Art Studio are welcome to register in this Level 2 Course and should be prepared to work independently for a large part of the class to develop a series of finished paintings in a subject or style that interests them. This class focuses on a higher level of technique/ painting mastery, color theory, color mixing and strong compositions ( finished paintings). Shadow and light, three dimensional form, transparency and opacity, mood and expression, developing original compositions from your own photos are all areas to consider at this level. Supplies are Included By purchasing this course you agree to our cancellation policy.
