January 14 | Wet in wet
The most beautiful effects of watercolor painting are achieved by causing colors to blend on the paper. We'll play with wet in wet effects with a simple subject.
January 21 | Dynamic Brushwork
To create a feeling of movement, use a large brush, make most of the strokes in the direction of the movement, and minimize the number of strokes used.
January 28 | Paint without a brush
This painting was created using only a credit card to move the paint, make straight and curved lines, and various shapes. Painting this way is simple and encourages imagination. Bring an outdated credit card and any other object you would like to try, to make marks.
