Join us for an evening of painting watercolor landscapes. We'll explore composition, technique, and much more to help you make simple, pleasing landscapes from your own photos or experiences.
Where should the horizon line go? How much detail is too much and where should I put it? What colors and techniques make a sky that feels realistic? What do we paint first, and how? What's the importance of cool greens and warm greens? We'll talk about all these and more as we explore this super fun and relaxing hobby.
Watercolor experience is helpful, but not necessary, as we won't be discussing basics such as materials or basic usability.
