Have you wanted to paint while on vacation but are daunted by the idea of bringing all those supplies and finding the time? This course will change that as we explore watercolor, drawing, collage and more to find what materials work well and inspire your sketching. We will work from photos during class to get you comfortable with different techniques to try outdoors. In addition, you will be exposed to fun supplies and learn some hacks to save time and pack smart.
Supplies:
You can do this class with a sketchbook of mixed media or watercolor paper, a few watercolors, some pencils, markers, a magazine and a glue stick. This class works for both the art supply junkie and the minimalist. In first class I will show and demo various supplies you may want to add.
NOTE: This class will be taught online using Zoom. Students are expected to be well versed in the use of Zoom prior to the start of class. The classes area recorded and recordings are available for a month following each class.
