Watercolor Painting for Beginners with Giselle Harrington

This class teaches you the traditional methods of handling transparent watercolor in representational painting. You will learn how to control watercolor through washes and glazes, creating soft edges, using wet-in-wet techniques and using dry-brush. You will also learn how to work with the time constraints of the medium through a simplification of value shapes- a key to success in watercolor. *Students have the option to rent supplies for use in class or bring their own.
