ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
In this ongoing series, you’ll learn fundamental drawing and painting techniques that will build your skills so that you can illustrate your calligraphy with images to complement your writing.
All techniques will be explained and demonstrated, plus you’ll have time to practice and ask questions. Drawing techniques will include contour drawing, beginning a drawing with basic shapes, measuring to get correct proportions, how to see values and add shading. I will also teach you an illustrator’s secret tricks, supplies, and methods to bring your drawings to life.
The watercolor painting techniques taught in our workshop will help you paint all kinds of different effects with watercolor.
You’ll also learn color mixing techniques and recipes that will help you avoid muddy colors and mix the colors you want.
Ink drawing techniques to enhance your watercolor work will be taught, as well as how to fix painting mistakes. THIS SESSION WILL BE RECORDED AND AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING FOR THREE MONTHS.
SKILL LEVEL: These sessions will be geared toward beginners, or others wishing to refresh their basic skills.
