Foundational Techniques for Watercolor
Beginning Level
Thursdays, May 14 to June 11, 2026 (5 weeks) 9:30 am to 12:30 pm PST on Zoom
This class is designed for the beginning watercolor student. It is a fun, no-pressure way to explore the watercolor medium! We will focus on watercolor technique and a clear understanding of the pigments, brushes and papers, but also have time for experimentation, using watercolor as the vehicle for personal expression.
Over the 5 weeks, we will cover best practices for Handling a Brush, Controlling Water and Pigment, Mixing and Layering Colors, and Creating Textural Effects. All techniques will be demonstrated and include hands-on exercises. Classes will be supplemented with slide presentations, demo recordings, handouts, and group critiques of work done in and out of class.
