Watercolor Class

-
We are having a great time learning together. We've done several different paintings so far. We've practiced different washes and skies and now we are focusing on a negative space painting. First we drew trees, painted a variegated wash background and then the trees in postitive sense in profile. Now we are painting the negative space between the branches of the trees of a new painting. All of the students are developing their own style. Hopefully, they will allow me to post some photos of their finished work.
