This fun-filled day of watercolor painting is focused on painting an animal using watercolor techniques. We will discuss washes, wet into wet, negative painting, values, color, texture, and composition as we paint a rabbit. Loose or detailed will work: how would you like to paint your rabbit?
The day begins with discussion and a painting exercise. Together we will work step-by-step on the elements and the techniques of painting. Artists will receive a photo of a rabbit which students will refer to during class time.
Students are welcome to bring a different photo of an animal other than a rabbit to paint.
