Put the “COLOR” in Your Watercolors

This class helps you
define or refine your own color sensibility. You will use your existing colors
and discover which colors in your palette work well together. No tricky colors
to buy that you only use once! Every day we use new watercolor techniques —
from better wash techniques to learning the best way to use frisket to mixed
media additions — a touch of crayon or gouache, and so on. We begin in the
classroom with still lifes, and then find color in nature as we explore the
environment around Arrowmont and in the Smoky Mountains. All days will close
with an in-depth critique of the work done that day. All levels.
COURSE FEE: $515
