Beginning Watercolor Landscape Painting Class presented by Palmer Lake Arts Council

This class will familiarize students with basic watercolor materials and equipment. Students will develop composition and color theory fundamentals of landscape painting. We will use a travel watercolor set so that students will be able to paint on location for assignments out of class and in the studio as practice. Students will develop landscape painting watercolor techniques using photo references in the classroom. The class will explore color mixing, color complements and color harmonies essential in successful landscape paintings. Each session we will have time for classroom instruction, painting exercises for visual accuracy, and group critiques.
