Join this Watercolor class on Wednesdays online with Esther Marie. We will explore different techniques each week, from realism to abstract and review- ing artists of the past. A brief history of each artist is explored before we begin painting. Critiques will be discussed as a group discussion as well as elements and principles of art. This class is to help each student nurture their own signature style in watercolor. Students will have the options to paint from still life, and pictures or from their own references. Emphasis is on cre- ating images from a still life and review art history to enhance our creations. We will focus on developing good compositions through negative painting, focal points and a variety of tools. Students will learn about brush strokes, washes, mixes, blending and color theory. They will use watercolors to establish color and light, to work wet-on-wet, for texture, to suggest value changes, for negative painting with discussion on composition, as well as for focus and depth. Emphasis in this class is for individual instructional tech- niques to foster your ability. A demonstration will be followed by hands on experience and personal critiques.
