Step into the rich tradition of watercolor painting, a medium that has documented history through centuries of artistic expression. This introductory course focuses on developing solid foundational brush techniques that produce clean, vibrant colors while building sensitivity and control in your hand. This is not a "copy the teacher" format; instead, the veteran instructor guides you through the history and characteristics of transparent paint, exploring best practices for color mixing and advanced painting techniques. By course completion, you'll have created a portfolio of finished watercolor works of art and will receive a certificate of completion.
This course is perfect for those interested in pursuing watercolor for fine art, book illustration, advertising, and design applications. You'll gain the fundamentals needed to continue advancing your watercolor skills.
