Class Description:

During this session we will use juicy washes to create the settings and shadows for more detailed subjects.  The first painting using this technique will be an atmospheric landscape, then applying the same technique to creating a background of rain.  Each painting will involve broad washes contrasted with a detailed subject and discovering how much pigment to use.

Supplies Needed:

Participants should have professional grade water colors, brushes, masking fluid and quality

paper. Projects are designed for 12 x 16 inches paper. Students should be familiar with pattern transfer and masking. Also, don’t forget your water containers, apron, and towels.

Meet The Instructor:

I was born in California, attended college in Iowa earning a degree in secondary education.  We became an Air Force family, which meant not only travel, but it meant I connected with a variety of jobs all involving teaching, training and creativity.  My creative skills began with woodcarving, but I always wanted to try my hand at watercolor.  I started taking classes with artists Bev Joswiak, Vickie Nelson, Gene Drake, Bridget Austin and many others.  I love watercolor and I am still captivated with all the different effects and moods that come from my brush.  I have taught many classes and continue to enjoy sharing my skills with others.  I’ve been shown in many galleries successfully, been commissioned to paint pets and subjects, and competed in Wisconsin WRAP events.
