Color Studies in Watercolor

Translucence is at the heart of watercolor painting. Learn to chart and mix your colors to keep the beautiful luminosity of the medium. This class includes color charting, tinting color mixes with a third pigment and learning to combine warm and cool hues. We will also explore origins of pigments, different pigment properties and differences amongst manufacturers. An excellent class for both the beginner and advanced student.
