Mondays, 6 Week ClassIntermediate, Advanced Enjoy all the wonderful creative techniques that are unique to watercolor: how to control wet-into wet washes and use those creative techniques to express your subject. We will learn how to plan for success by using the elements of design, color theory and  painting plans. Emphasis will be on how to loosen up with wet into wet watercolor.  There will be daily demonstrations and plenty of individual attention. Ages 17 and up. Click Here for Supply ListWatercolor Paper 140 lb. 100% cotton handmade paper (Arches)cold press. I prefer the sheet form which comes in 22×30" which can be cut down to four ¼ sheets which is a good size for class work. Brushes Watercolor brushes are soft and made of sable, squirrel, ox hair, and many synthetics. The most important quality of the brush is that it springs back to shape when wet. 1" Flat brush, #8 Round, #3 Rigger (thin brush with long hairs) Paint I prefer watercolor paint in tubes. There are many very good brands of paint but what is important is to have a warm and cool of each primary color. Grumbacher Academy is a good inexpensive student grade brand.  CoolWarmRedAlizarin CrimsonCad Red Light or VermillionBluePrussian BlueUltramarine BlueYellowLemon or Cad Yellow LightCad Yellow MediumOther useful colors- Paynes Gray, Burnt Sienna, Burnt Umber, Viridian, Thalo Crimson (pink) Palette Any white palette with a good mixing area can be a plastic white plate (not foam) Board This is support for your paper while you are painting so it should be waterproof.

Miscellaneous 2-water containers, sponges, paper towels, tissue, pencil, kneaded eraser, salt, masking tape, white crayon, white copy paper to test color and brush strokes.

Mondays, 6 Week ClassAll levels welcome! This course is designed to help students of all levels develop strategies to strengthen the gesture, proportion, perspective, and color in their portrait paintings by the time-honored tradition of making master copies. Students will be working from high quality 2D reproductions in this course as a matter of convenience, but all principles can be applied to painting from a live model. We will explore different choices of palettes and techniques dependent upon the student's experience level, and their artists of choice. There will be broad information shared with the entire class that will apply to all, and from there the instruction will be tailored to the individual students' needs. This course is for all levels of experience, you don't have to be a master yourself to learn from the masters! Click Here for Supply ListThis list of paints is meant to be a solid base for traditional, representational portraiture, and will cover most of your needs. Although many past masters have used vermillion, I have not included that pigment because it is so cost prohibitive. Also, depending upon your choice of artist, you may require an additional pigment or two. If you are able to buy "artist quality" paints instead of "student grade" paints, I recommend doing so. Oil PaintsTitanium white 150mlFlake white 150ml or 37mlTrasnparent red iron oxide, or Transparent earth red (PR101)Cadmium red light 37mlPermanent or Alizarin crimson 37mlCadmium orange 37mlYellow Ochre 37mlRaw umber 37mlTere Vert 37ml (optional)Ultramarine blue 37mlIvory black 37ml MediumSmall container of linseed oilSmall container of odorless mineral spirits (Gamsol) in an airtight jarAlkyd medium. Liquin and Galkyd are both excellent, you'll only need one BrushesYou will need a variety of sizes to begin with. I recommend having 3 sizes of round brushes at the minimum. We can discuss brushed more during class, and you can decide for yourself what you prefer, but make sure you have some larger sizes to complement the small ones. SurfacesGessoed canvas or wood panel (your choice of size, but larger is often less difficult for working out drawing problems)One or two canvas boards around 8×10 for studiesYou may need more surfaces as the weeks progress, but this will suffice to start. The images you choose should be taken into consideration when deciding on the size and proportions of your surface. EX: If you choose an image that has a square composition, it would be wise to use a square surface to paint on. OtherPalette knife (I prefer a diamond head shape) Liquitex is an excellent brand and valueMetal ruler 18"Jack Richeson grey paper palette pad 12×16It's advisable to have a stiff surface like foam board or wood to support the paper during use.Paper towels, or blue shop ragsCotton cloth rags. Old T-shirts work very wellOptional: Gesso (acrylic polymer ground) if you wish to prepare surfaces like wood, paper, canvas, metal, or just to add stability to commercially pre-gessoed canvas RegisterDetailsDate & Time: Instructor
