Janet Nunn
Bold & Bright with Liquid Watercolors

Jun 5 - Jun 10

4 Teaching Days

Description

Returning for the 4th year in 2022

Janet’s classes are a unique way to learn to paint with watercolors… liquid watercolors!

The class explores using the liquid paints, which gives more vibrancy to your paintings and simplifies the artist’s palette, making watercolor painting more efficient and more fun.  Janet has a unique way of teaching in which adults learn best. In Janet’s classes, everyone paints and the sessions are based on a shortened demonstration time and a longer hands-on painting time allows for the participant to really learn. Most of the supplies are provided, so try before you buy.

We will try a variety of techniques – some traditional and some not – to apply the paint and make it work for you. We will use a variety of brushes, but we will also use straws, plastic wrap, tissue, masking, misting water, and basting brushes. When was the last time you created foliage in a landscape with a basting brush?

These classes are for every level of watercolor painter. It is a great experience for those just learning the process for those with more experience who have been painting for a while and want to wake up their paintings or learn new techniques.
