Thursday, August 30th, 2012

I’m excited to teach a beginner watercolour class at the Kelowna Art Gallery next month.

INTRODUCTION TO WATERCOLOUR

Dates: Thursdays, Sept 13 to Oct 18, 2012
Time: 6:00 to 9:00 pm
Location: Kelowna Art Gallery, 1315 Water Street
Register: call 250-762-2226 to register

This workshop is perfect for you if you have never tried watercolour painting, or maybe you have dabbled a little but never learned the basics.

I’m going to go over the techniques and skills needed to develop a foundation of watercolour basics.

Some of the things I’ll be going over are clear washes, textures, clouds, trees, mist, reflections in water, snow, and more.
