Class agendaLearn the fundamentals of watercolor painting techniques and have a couple hours of fun learning new art skills and painting the iconic view of Mt. Rainier as seen from Gig Harbor.
In this workshop, we will open up with introduction to the key techniques in watercolor medium – painting basic washes, creating soft textures for the trees and methods for painting boats, water and building. This portion will take up to 40 minutes of the class. And for the next 60-80 minutes, we will move onto drawing and painting the Rainier scene from beginning to end.
As different from most "Paint by the number" or "Paint & Sip" events, this beginner friendly watercolor painting workshop teaches fine art principals at an accessible format, by a professional local artist. During the class, you will not only be able to follow along step-by-step, but understand the intention behind composition, color mixing and painting execution. You will also receive 1:1 coaching and feedback to help you troubleshoot and improve your techniques. Most people walk away with a satisfying painting, feeling inspired with the possibilities of pursuing watercolor painting as a hobby.
Cost includes all necessary supplies. Feel free to bring your favorite supplies if you already have a practice in watercolor.
Tracing paper available to help those who don't feel comfortable drawing the scene freehand.
ATTN: Although this workshop doesn't require prior experience, it is however quite involved and thus not ideal for young children. Please contact [email protected] prior to booking the workshop for your kids.
