About this Event
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the unique technique of negative watercolor painting—where the background is built up in layers, leaving the subject (in this case, leaves) to emerge naturally. Using warm autumn colors, we’ll explore how to create depth, contrast, and glowing highlights while practicing brush control and layering.
This class is perfect for beginners and experienced painters alike who want to explore a fresh perspective on watercolor. By the end, you’ll leave with your own vibrant fall-inspired painting and a new skill that can be applied to endless creative projects.
All materials provided.
This class is part of the Arts for Older Adults program and is open only to adults aged 60 or older through funding from the Tennesee Arts Commission.
