Course Instructor - Julie Sibley

Course Fee - $25.00

Materials Fee - $15.00

Start or restart your color moves with all the basics.  Let your imagination guide you into finding out how you like to layer colors. With the local landscapes as our guide, we will explore the magic of mixing colors and color charts. Then all the traditional techniques of washes, bleeds, and graduations, will be demonstrated, practiced, and combined, with your composition or designs.  The emphasis will be on the playfulness of this medium and letting yourself "go with the flow."    Bring supplies to begin painting the first day of class. If you have not purchased brushes or other supplies, wait until the first class when supplies are discussed, to find out what you actually need for this art form. 

Every week you will receive color handouts on class presentations which is a one time materials fee charge of $15.00 for the class.

This class is suitable for beginners to advanced.

Supply List: Bring your favorite watercolor papers, brushes, watercolors, #2 pencil, pallet, brush rinsing container, masking fluid and spray bottle to join the fun.  Optional sketchbook or notebook for notes is recommended.
