Watercolor: Tips, Tricks and Techniques

This event is no longer on sale.

No middle-value blah paintings here!  Learn some of the fun techniques used when painting with watercolors, including masking sections of your work to “save the white,” creating various textures, and pushing those values. Together we will practice and create small samples of various techniques for you to refer to later.
