My high school art class has been working on watercolor flower paintings for 2 weeks now.
First they chose a reference photo from my stash and transferred the image to 140# Arches cold pressed paper. We kept the image on the smaller side to make it more manageable, 9 x 6".
Each student has their own unique style and it is a blast to watch the paintings take shape.
Art Classes Start Tomorrow
...and frankly, I'm petrified. I will be teaching 3 classes this semester. Two I've done for the past 2 years: Art of the Masters- an elementary art class and Watercolor for high schoolers. Those, I expect, will go well. The third and newest class is acrylic painting with middle schoolers. I will have 8 students, 2 more than I should have taken and we are the last class of the day. I sure hope they have fun and learn something in the process. Let the games begin (or the painting begin...). More later.
