Students will be presented with a more in-depth coverage of the basic watercolour theories and techniques that they learned in beginners classes. So– a re-enforcement of basics with some new info and techniques to help them hone their skills.  In-class demonstrations, discussions, critiques and hands on assignments will guide the student to developing their own style with this magical medium. (no class February 12 & March 19) 10 classes

Supplies Needed:

• Paint – 1 tube of each: Permanent Rose, Winsor yellow, Winsor red, French Ultra Marine

  The above colours are suggested by your instructor; please talk to Gail concerning quality and quantity of products needed.
