Watercolor! Paint the Water's Shimmer (Florida)
January 28, 2025
9:00am-12:00pm. Nothing is more mesmerizing than watching the light on water. This workshop will teach you
how to create that effect. What you learn can be used in any medium, but watercolor lends
itself to this subject matter. You are painting with water after all! You will learn basic
transparent watercolor techniques, such as wet on wet, lifting out, dry brush, glazing, while
using white gouache as a final highlight to enhance the sparkles. This particular harbor is
incidental, so you can change the background silhouette if you choose. No worries if you can't
draw, as a copy of the boat is provided to transfer onto your painting. Great class for
beginners, as techniques are taught step by step. All supplies are included!
